The objective of VineRobot is the design, development, and deployment of a novel use-case agricultural robot as an unmanned ground vehicle, equipped with several non-invasive sensing technologies, to monitor vineyard parameters: grape yield, vegetative growth, water stress and grape composition.
VineRobot will integrate 4 basic sensing technologies: chlorophyll-based fluorescence, RGB machine vision, IR thermography and WiFi & GPS; and it will be used to optimize the vineyard management and improve grape composition and wine quality.
