“AI powered tethered drones picking apples 🤯

Then they use a little arm to pick them.

AI & robotics will completely revolutionize the agriculture industry.”

Precise robot arm control is a surprisingly hard problem. I can see some advantages to being able to move freely in 3D

And you'd still have to maneuver the truck more with the arm. With the tethered drone, they could pull up to a tree and take on three-ish trees from one spot.
