Karkee will discuss the importance of precision and automated/robotic systems for the future of farming (Smart Farming, Ag 4.0). He will then summarize past efforts and current status of agricultural automation and robotics, particularly for fruit crop production, followed by an introduction of the novel systems being developed in his program. The technologies to be introduced include robotic fruit harvesting, fruit tree pruning, and crop thinning. At the end, major challenges and opportunities in agricultural robotics and related areas as well as potential future directions in research and development will be discussed
