Ultrasonic and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensors have been some of the most
deeply investigated sensing technologies within the scope of digital horticulture. They can …

Three-dimensional perception is a key technology for many robotics applications, including
obstacle detection, map**, and localization. There exist a number of sensors and …

This paper presents a novel multi-sensor framework to efficiently identify, track, localise and
map every piece of fruit in a commercial mango orchard. A multiple viewpoint approach is …

This paper present a mobile terrestrial scanning system for almond orchards, that is able to
efficiently map flower and fruit distributions and to estimate and predict yield for individual …

This survey article provides a synopsis of some of the engineering problems, technological
innovations, robotic development, and automation efforts encountered in the mining …

The scientific areas of plant genomics and phenomics are capable of improving plant
productivity, yet they are limited by the manual labor that is currently required to perform in …

Consider a differential-drive mobile robot equipped with an on-board exteroceptive sensor
that can estimate its own motion, eg, a range-finder. Calibration of this robot involves …

This paper presents a technique for the calibration of multi-beam laser scanners. The
technique is based on an optimization process, which gives precise estimation of calibration …

In this paper we describe a method for the automatic self-calibration of a 3D laser sensor.
We wish to acquire crisp point clouds and so we adopt a measure of crispness to capture …

In this paper we present large, accurately calibrated and time-synchronized data sets,
gathered outdoors in controlled and variable environmental conditions, using an unmanned …
