Ground Robot for vineyArd monitoring and ProtEction (GRAPE)

Ground Robot for vineyArd monitoring and ProtEction (GRAPE)

The GRAPE project addresses the agricultural and food robotics scenario, focusing on vineyard farming activities and aiming at setting up a robotic manipulation platform able to support lead users to develop a variety of farming applications.
GRAPE aims at contributing to the technical advancement of precision agriculture, in particular, to the market of instruments for biological control by developing the tools required to execute vineyard monitoring
and farming tasks with (semi) autonomous Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs).

AGRITECH National Center for Technology in Agriculture

Producing sufficient and safe food for a growing population without over-exploiting natural resources is one of the major problems that our society must face, finding solutions which are sustainable in the long term. This is a global challenge, placed in a difficult context of unstable climate, increasing competition for land, water and energy, in an increasingly urbanized and globalized world.

ROSETEA lab participates to the National Center for Technology in Agriculture AGRITECH, in particular to Spoke 3 (Enabling technologies and sustainable strategies for the smart management of agricultural systems and their environmental impact) and to Spoke 8 (New models of circular economy in agriculture through waste valorization and recycling).
