GroW is an Advanced Robot Made for Precision Greenhouse Harvesting
Rating
0.0 stars

GRoW is an advanced robot made for precision greenhouse harvesting. This machine will autonomously move throughout the greenhouse scanning and choosing vegetables ready to be picked from the vine. GRoW moves up and down the rows of the greenhouse unmanned and then is driven to the next row via a phone app. The phone app also lets you configure which ripeness to harvest and where on the vine to make the cut. GRoW will record and predict productivity to ensure optimum performance.

The Hierarchy of Controls
Rating
0.0 stars

The idea behind this hierarchy is that the control methods at the top of the graphic are potentially more effective and protective than those at the bottom. Following this hierarchy normally leads to the implementation of inherently safer systems, where the risk of illness or injury has been substantially reduced.

How a Combine Harvester Works
Rating
0.0 stars

"The modern combine harvester, or simply combine, is a versatile machine designed to efficiently harvest a variety of grain crops. The name derives from its combining three separate harvesting operations—reaping, threshing, and winnowing—into a single process. Among the crops harvested with a combine are wheat, oats, rye, barley, corn (maize), sorghum, soybeans, flax (linseed), sunflowers, and canola. The separated straw, left lying on the field, comprises the stems and any remaining leaves of the crop with limited nutrients left in it: the straw is then either chopped, spread on the field and plowed back in or baled for bedding and limited feed for livestock.

Combine harvesters are one of the most economically important labour-saving inventions, significantly reducing the fraction of the population engaged in agriculture."
