Dodich - Creation of a machine for viticulture powered by renewable sources.

DODICH Dodich is a project co-financed by European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD).

The DODICH project aims are to develop a cost effective and small sized autonomous machine capable to perform simple operations in vineyards with the possibility to be powered by renewable energy sources. Vineyard's owners could benefit, with this kind of vehicle by either costs reduction on wine production and better safety and quality for the automated operations. The IAS-Lab contribute to this project developing the autonomous navigation algorithms and the software application framework. A further contribute by the IAS-Lab is the development of a wireless battery charger system prototype and a complete autonomous docking algorithm to enable a robot to be 24/7 autonomous and operative.

il 26 Gennaio si è tenuto presso il Centro Interdipartimentale per la Ricerca in Viticoltura ed Enologia di Conegliano, il convegno finale del progetto DODICH. Sono disponibili al seguente link le presentazioni dei relatori: http://www.ethics.it/dodich/presentazioni-convegno-dodich/
