Abstract
This article presents a method for developing a realistic robotics simulation environment for application in vegetable greenhouses. The method pipeline starts with the construction of a 3D cloud images of the greenhouse rows. This data is then used to develop a robotics simulation environment using the CoppeliaSim simulation software. The method has been tested using images from a commercial greenhouse.
