Opis

The cultivation of grapevines has a long tradition, but at the same time is characterized by continuous development. When breeding new grape varieties, great importance is attached to resistance to fungal diseases. Adapted precision farming methods are increasingly being used in vineyard management. The PHENOvines research project attempted to combine these two areas in an interdisciplinary project. The automated, self-driving PHENObot assessment platform was developed to accelerate and objectify the phenotyping required during vine breeding. This book focuses on the conceptual and design work involved in creating this assessment platform, its navigation, and the guidance of the sensor system for image data acquisition. Another component is the experimental testing and trial phase.
