Palmyra Tree Fruit Harvesting System

This repository introduces a novel application of autonomous drone technology combined with advanced machine learning algorithms for optimizing the harvesting process of palmyra tree fruits. By integrating YOLOv8 object detection with a specialized cutting mechanism, the system efficiently identifies and removes ripe fruit clusters from the tree branches.

Features

  • Utilizes YOLOv8 object detection for identifying ripe fruit clusters
  • Implements a specialized cutting mechanism for efficient harvesting
  • Reduces time and labor requirements in the harvesting process
  • Field evaluations demonstrate notable improvements in harvesting efficiency
  • Presents a scalable solution for enhancing productivity in palmyra plantations
  • Contributes to the advancement of agricultural automation technologies

Installation

  1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/NotRay-67/PalmyraHarvestAutomation.git
  2. Install dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt
  3. Run the application: python app.py
