Tea leaf recognition and robotic tea picking end-effector are the key technologies for automated tea picking. This paper proposes a set of algorithms for tea leaf differentiation and recognition based on the principle of colour difference. And on the basis of this algorithm, a tea picking end-effector is designed. The experiments show that the designed tea picking end-effector has good recognition ability and high tea picking speed. %K Image Recognition of Tea Leaves %K Tea Picking End-Effector %K Tea PickingStructure Design %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=140167
