Modular and Cooperative Robot for Vineyards
01/01/2017 – 1/09/2019
Development of a new vision guided navigation systems which adapt planned trajectories to the high slopes and passive mechanisms for obstacle overcoming. It will be created a robotic platform that is simultaneously low cost and extremely modular and versatile to be able to integrate all kinds of payload.
The RoMoVi project has as main objective the development of robotic components and a modular and extensible mobile platform, which will allow in the future to provide commercial solutions for hillside vineyards capable of autonomously executing operations of: Monitoring, Logistics.
The RoMoVi aims to develop a platform simultaneously low cost and extremely modular and versatile to be able to integrate the most diverse types of payload, both sensors and actuators. Two applications will be demonstrated through a prototype with monitoring and logistics capabilities.
