Hopefully named Johnny 5 Appleseed or its creators completely blew it, this is a video of a robotic apple harvester picking about 30 apples in a minute, using the latest in apple-identifying technology and its six suction-cupped hands to get the job done.

Using AI learning, scientists at the University of Tokyo’s ISI Laboratory have successfully taught a pair of robotic arms to peel a banana without tearing your penis off with one hand and vaporizing it with the laser blaster in its other. Congratulations? Handling soft fruit is tricky for robots, but

This is a brief video of an automated lemon-stickering machine (I know it was on my Christmas list) doing its thing. Its thing being applying the stickers to lemons so both you and the cashier can identify them at the supermarket. Oh is that a lemon? Shoot, I meant to

This is a timelapse video from Youtuber Temponaut Timelapse of ants eating a slice of tangerine over the course of 50 hours, but most of the fruit is already gone by 20 hours. For reference, I was once responsibly for bringing the orange slices to my adult league kickball game

This is a video from Valencia, Spain of a front end loader with an orange harvesting attachment spreading its cape around an orange tree planted on the sidewalk and shaking and catching the fruit as it falls. Well, some of it at least. Apparently these particular orange trees produce fruit
