Nowadays robots are cheaper, can work in hostile and dirty environments and they are able to manipulate products at high speed. High speed and reliability and low robot gripper costs are necessary for a profitable pick and place (P&P) process. However, current grippers are not able to handle these products properly because they have uneven shapes, are flexible and irregular, have different textures and are very sensitive to being damaged. This review brings together the requirements and phases used in the process of manipulation, summarises and analyses of the existing, potential and emerging techniques and their possibilities for the manipulation of fresh horticultural products from a detailed study of their characteristics. It considers the difficulties and the lack of engineers to conceive of and implement solutions. Contact grippers with underactuated mechanism and suction cups could be a promising approach for the manipulation of fresh fruit and vegetables. Ongoing study is still necessary on the characteristics and handling requirements of fresh fruit and vegetables in order to design grippers which are suitable for correct manipulation, at high speed, in profitable P&P processes for industrial applications.This work has been partially funded by research project with reference DPI2010-20286 financed by the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion.Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA)Departamento de Ingeniería de Sistemas y AutomáticaDepartamento de Ingeniería Rural y AgroalimentariaEscuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Aeroespacial y Diseño IndustrialInstituto Universitario de Automática e Informática IndustrialEscuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería InformáticaEscuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Agronómica y del Medio NaturalGrupo de Mecanización y Tecnología AgrariaMinisterio de Ciencia e InnovaciónRepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20112011-01-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/29283reponame:RiuNet.
