And Fieldwork Robotics – among other companies – has a solution. “Nobody wants to pick fruit anymore,” said Sid Shaikh, director and CTO of Fieldwork Robotics told Newsweek. Fieldwork Robotics’ next-generation platform “will be looking around the bush a little more,” Shaikh said, to spot berries that would otherwise be missed. Thanks to the technology being developed by companies like Fieldwork Robotics, machines may be poised to revolutionize harvesting. You may have never considered it, but the next fruit you sink your teeth into might have been picked by a robot rather than a human.
