Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) This paper proposes a Mask R-CNN[1] based method for locating fruits (tomatoes and yellow bell peppers, etc.) and estimating the cutting positions from RGBD images acquired by a camera moved along a fixed path. After getting mask results of all fruits and pedicels (cutting positions), the proposed method judges the matching relationship between the located fruit and pedicel according to the distance between fruit and pedicel. Experimental results show the proposed method effectively detects the cutting position of each fruit. The method is also robust in complex environments. In addition, it turns out that the fixed path strategy is valid for avoiding obstacles and reaching the pedicel and cutting position accurately. A high harvesting success rate was achieved in a Gazebo based simulated environment.
