Robot and 3D imaging to automatically debone poultry

Researchers at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) are developing an intelligent cutting and deboning system. It uses 3D imaging and a robotic cutting arm to automatically perform precision cuts that optimise yield while eliminating the risk of bone fragments in the finished product. By Georgia Tech, Atlanta, GA, USA “Each and every bird is unique in its size and shape. It seems only natural that to maximise yield and minimise bone chips in the deboning process that we develop the
