We used to call this "vaporware".
Certainly with my own robots I can pick raspberrys much faster and better than those guys can currently do.
This thing is extremely slow. I am wondering what kind of engineering those people have used for it to be so slow. Probably they are using java or python or mathlab code, instead of using things like C, shaders and FPGA code, expecting the creation of this low level code to be the "easy" part(in the future of course).
From my experience, your greatest advantage is the ability to master those low level technologies. It has to be designed around this technologies and not as an after thought like this project looks.

- fiblye 7y agoAs someone working in automation, I don't think the real bottleneck here would be python. It seems more like it's waiting for accurate sensor input and trying to properly position itself. Slight mechanical imperfections with a delicate fruit like a raspberry means disaster, while a machine like this could probably recognize and tug apples off a tree without any delay.
