5.8 Design Information:

Plucking and collecting robot serves as a multi purpose semi-automatic agricultural robot, which is actually run by motor, remote controlled and is user friendly. The bot is of the dimension 2ft by 1.5 ft and is light weight. The robot can work for 8 hours on a regular basis. It can hold hold the weight upto 5 to 6 kgs. So basically the bot accepts the response from the user through remote control or by some app and it moves, plucks the fruits and collects them.
