Can humanoid robot farmer revolutionise grape picking in vineyards?

Extend Robotics are building embodied AI enabling highly flexible automation for real-world physical tasks. The system features intuitive immersive interface enabling tele-operation, supervision and training AI models. Extend Robotics is pioneering a shift in viticulture with intelligent automation at Saffron Grange Vineyard in Essex, addressing the challenges of grape harvesting with their robotic capabilities. Grape picking demands delicate handling and perfect timing—two qualities typically requiring skilled labor. However, labor shortages, tight harvest windows, and climate fluctuations drive the need for innovative solutions. Our collaborative project with Queen Mary University introduces a robotic system capable of identifying ripe grapes through AI-driven visual sensors, which assess ripeness based on internal sugar levels without damaging delicate fruit. Equipped with pressure-sensitive grippers, our robots can handle grapes gently, preserving their quality and value. This precise harvesting approach could revolutionise vineyards, enabling autonomous and remote operations. Homepage: https://www.extendrobotics.com LinkedIn:   / 26551187   Twitter: @extend_robotics
