Introduction

The need for specialized information in the field of bioproduction is rising because agricultural products are diversified and complicated, the environment around the objects changes from time to time, and the robot mechanism should adapt to physical properties and cultivation methods of the biological objects. Robotics for bioproduction needs to be derived from an integrated understanding of biotechnology and engineering. A robotic book is needed to give readers information on how to solve bioproduction problems that could not be solved by traditional robotic engineering alone and to automate operations that could not be done by commonly used agricultural machines.
