The European project VINBOT, based on precision viticulture, has just finished after three years of intense work.
The VINBOT robot is based on the mobile autonomous platform SUMMIT XL and the main objective of it is to optimize the performance management and the quality of the wine.
This has been made possible thanks to the wide sensing that the robot is equipped with and has allowed it to capture and analyze images of vineyards and 3D data through the use of cloud computing applications.
VINBOT emerges as a response to the need to boost the quality of European wines through the application of precision viticulture. The project, which has successfully completed, will allow wineries and winemakers to be able to make accurate predictions of the performance of their vineyards. Once this is done, the production and marketing of the wines can be favorably organized.
