Kozhikode-based Altersage (Altersage) has developed a tree-climbing robot called Cocobot, the world’s first commercially viable coconut harvesting robot. Cocobot's patented design adapts to multiple vertical plantation crops such as arecanut, peach palm and jucara palm.

From coconut trees to the future of Physical AI. Thank you for helping us take Indian agricultural robotics to the world! This is just the beginning.

@Altersage_Inno Do farmers have to pay noku coolie anyway?!

@Altersage_Inno Looks very clumsy. Indian developers must understand aesthetics and form factors. Well, given that their surroundings are so dirty, they won't know what is aesthetic. That is the problem with all Indian developers—they have no sense of beauty.

@Altersage_Inno Train monkeys for this job...they will do it super fast..

@Altersage_Inno But where is lungi to collect coconuts ! 😂

@Altersage_Inno When it is coming for market?

@Altersage_Inno Tree-climbing harvest robots usually die on trunk variance, not climbing. If Cocobot is commercially viable across coconut, arecanut and palm, the number that decides it is trees per shift with a non-technical operator — not the patented kinematics.
