Apple-Picking Robot

14th August 2017

Read it.

Abundant Robotics in California has built an automated apple picker, that uses a vacuum system to suck the fruit straight off of the trees.

So much for jobs ‘Americans won’t do’.

“Harvesting apples isn’t an unskilled job. It’s highly skilled and difficult work,” Todd Fryhover from the Washington Apple Commission told NewsHour. “Robotics will help in harvesting the apples at the optimum time to provide the best possible apple to consumers.

And decrease the need for illegal immigrant workers.

    And decrease the need for legal immigrant workers as well. And decrease the need for workers, period.

    Your job is next. It’s just a matter of time.
