This invention describes a system where two or more self-driving robots work together in a field, like a convoy. Each robot can be designed for tasks such as harvesting, carrying crops, or spraying. They share their locations with each other to maintain their positions and follow a set route, often with one robot trailing another at a specific distance or time. The claims specifically focus on this multi-robot convoy system, not the individual picking mechanisms.
Why it matters: Autonomous navigation and multi-robot coordination software have matured significantly since 2020, making robust and reliable convoying systems for agricultural tasks more feasible and efficient to implement.
