About

Haiyong Shan is a pioneering roboticist whose work sits at the intersection of agricultural engineering and humanoid robotics, specializing in the development of intelligent harvesting systems. His primary research focuses on designing dual-arm robots capable of performing delicate, high-speed agricultural tasks—most notably, the rapid harvesting of table grapes grown on standard horizontal trellises. Shan’s major contribution is the creation of a dual-arm grape-harvesting robot that overcomes the critical industry bottleneck of low picking efficiency while maintaining the gentleness required for premium fruit. His most cited work, "Development of a dual-arm rapid grape-harvesting robot for horizontal trellis cultivation" (2022), has garnered 49 citations, underscoring its significance in advancing practical agricultural automation. Additionally, his earlier review, "Research Progress of Urban Dual-arm Humanoid Grape Harvesting Robot" (2021), with 14 citations, highlights his vision for integrating these technologies into urban production-leisure landscapes. By addressing the poor user-friendliness and lack of human-like dexterity in existing harvesters, Shan is shaping a future where robots work alongside humans in vineyards, blending efficiency with ergonomic design.
