Peppercorn Harvesting Robot
The aim of the device is to automate the task of harvesting pepper from 4m tall vines. The device uses a chain-driven multistage lifting platform to reach the height of 4m. The device uses a belt-driven drive (like a battle tank) to easily move on rough surfaces in the fields. Completely made of aluminium which is weatherproof and has high strength for a relatively low cost. Was involved in design of the complete device.
