Description
The EU-funded BACCHUS project proposes a smart robotic system utilising autonomous mobile platforms with dual manipulators for active inspection and selective harvesting of high value crops, replacing farmer work. The new system will be tested in a vineyard environment monitoring the state of different types of vines and harvesting grapes of different varieties in a human-like manner.
