Research and development in agricultural robotics: a perspective of digital farming. (2018, background): “For example, the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders in manual harvesting operations in Dutch greenhouses has motivated various researchers for replacement of human labor by automatons robot for picking cucumber [33] and sweet pepper [7] fruits.”
Agricultural Robotics for Field Operations (2020, background): “A cucumber robot claimed picking rate of 80%, while its average picking speed was 45 s per cucumber [115].”
