Excuse me but what is new here? Soft grippers have been a thing for decade now, there's evem industrial mass produced ones [1]. There's at least a dozens of labs making similar things each in Sk, Japan and China, how could they even patent this?? (maybe first ever in US?) As for sensors, there's nothing new there either? There's even cheap open source haptics sensor nowadays [2] by meta, or just companies [3] making them. Collecting data with humans is nothing new either. They don't even have a product, it's a "could" with the cherry on top: >Before the robot can be deployed on farms, the computer vision and positioning technologies that would let it find and reach for berries on the plant still need to be developed. Yes the part that have been the hardest (sensor fusion) haven't even been checked... Berry picking with robot have been a thing for a while now [4] [1] OnRobot https://youtu.be/BYAwP7Gn4N4?feature=shared https://youtu.be/BYAwP7Gn4N4?feature=shared [2] https://digit.ml/ https://digit.ml/ [3] https://www.fingervision.jp/en https://www.fingervision.jp/en [4] https://youtu.be/zBjNe_s3hys?feature=shared https://youtu.be/zBjNe_s3hys?feature=shared
