Robotnik role in AgRimate
Robotnik contributes by bringing its expertise in the design and manufacture of robotic mobile manipulators. Robotnik will provide a custom robust autonomous mobile manipulator capable of operating in outdoor environments and performing automated vineyard pruning. The Robot will navigate autonomously following the vineyard rows, as it is equipped with sensors to capture environmental data.

Quote about the project
“AgRimate allows us to bring robotic systems directly into the field to take on some of the most fatiguing and time-consuming tasks in agriculture. By automating complex operations like pruning, we not only reduce physical strain on workers but also help make farming more efficient, precise, and sustainable.”
