Phd CandidateWageningen Ur Greenhouse Horticulture Sep 2010 - Sep 2014Wageningen, The NetherlandsParticipated in the European "Clever Robots for crOPS" (CROPS) project (www.crops-robots.eu). This project involved the development of a harvesting robot for sweet-pepper. I focussed on image processing to distinguish plant parts, and motion planning to guide the robot arm to the sweet-pepper, while avoiding collisions with leaves or stems. Lastly, I have tested and evaluated the harvesting robot in a commercial greenhouse in the Netherlands, to determine the performance. Results are expected to be published in 2015. These topics are described in a thesis entitled 'Improving obstacle awareness for robotic harvesting of sweet pepper (=paprika)'. The public defense took place on 9 January 2015, in Wageningen. -
