Product Description

The Rubion robot, developed by Octinion, is a revolutionary autonomous strawberry harvester designed to pick ripe strawberries gently and efficiently—completely without human intervention. Using advanced 3D vision and AI-based fruit recognition, Rubion identifies the ripest berries and harvests them with a soft, patented gripper that mimics human touch, minimizing bruising and preserving fruit quality.

Built to operate in controlled environments such as greenhouses and polytunnels, Rubion works consistently and tirelessly, helping growers overcome labor shortages while ensuring only the best-quality fruit is picked.
