This research project focuses on berry thinning and the second gibberellin application in grape cultivation. The primary objective is to develop an AI‑assisted end effector that supports berry thinning by counting individual berries and acquiring their spatial coordinates through AI-based image analysis.
Target grape clusters are identified by an autonomous mobile robot, and the system employs two specialized end effectors—one for berry thinning and one for gibberellin application—to automatically perform each task. By integrating autonomous navigation, AI perception, and task‑specific end effectors, the project aims to realize a fully automated and optimized workflow for labor‑intensive grape management operations.
