Winebot

A French inventor named Christophe Millot has created a self-propelled robot for pruning vines, removing young shoots, and monitoring soil and vine health. Millot named his bot Wall-Ye, putting it one step ahead of its American cousin, the clunky-sounding Intelligent Robotic Vineyard Pruner. Key to the intelligent robotic vineyard pruner are stereoscopic scanning cameras that take 15 frames per second, scanning the entire vine and working full vine length ahead of the pruning shears.

Grower uncertainty about future vineyard labor sources and costs has motivated development of sophisticated vineyard mechanization tools and systems in recent years. About 70 vineyard professionals gathered this spring with avid interest at Sutter Home's Delta Ranch vineyard for a demonstration of the "Intelligent Robotic Vineyard Pruner." It's the latest version of a project under development by San Diego-based Vision Robotics Corp., with assistance from several California vineyard industry investors.
