Due to the intense seasonality, high labor intensity, and high cost, picking fruit and vegetables typically requires a significant amount of personnel, material resources, and time. The fruit and vegetable picking is a critical role in the agricultural production chain. At the same time, the world is facing the challenge of an aging population. As a result, the requirements of current agricultural output cannot be addressed by using the traditional ways of picking. The robots picking have been widely utilized in the domains of fruit and vegetable production due to increases in labor productivity, picking efficiency, cost, and other aspects related to the industry. Therefore, the structural characteristics and target recognition methods for the end-effectors of picking robots will be thoroughly summarized. This study will ensure that the future direction of structural development and recognition methods that are matched with fruit and vegetable picking are more visible.
