Abstract
This paper describes a power cable type harvesting robot for asparagus. Electric power supply is very important for harvesting robot which worked in green house. Conventional harvesting robot is working by electrical battery. However, there is not electrical battery with capacity which worked harvesting robot every day. On the other hand, asparagus is crops that should be harvested every day because growth speed is very early during summer season. For the reasons stated above, we are developing a power cable type harvesting robot for asparagus. Using power cable, our harvesting robot can work continuously in green house every day. Experimental results show that our harvesting robot have good performance to asparagus harvesting in green house.
