Derek Wilber on canopy management

President and Winemaker at White Springs Winery, Derek Wilber reviews the process of canopy management, enabling the fruit to fullen ripen and keeping pesky fungus at bay, minimizing usage of chemicals.

Leaf pulling: preparing our grapevines for ripening

Jordan Viticulturist Brent Young discusses the importance of leaf pulling vines during summer, how leaf thinning is conducted and why this practice is key for uniform ripening of grapes in our vineyards.

Structure of Spur and Cane Pruned Grapevines

This video demonstrates the structure of grapevines that are spur or cane pruned. The film is taken during the growing season to provide context as to the origin of shoots, shoot distribution, fruitfulness and general concepts for pruning. The concepts featured in this video are based on winegrape production and focus on Pinot Noir grapevines trained to a VSP (Vertically Shoot Positioned) canopy system. This video is for instructional and educational purposes only.

Autonomous vineyard spraying robot

With the aim to facilitate workers during harvesting and cultivating and to carry bins full of bunches of grapes up to the end of the rows, a versatile multifunction electrical vehicle has been developed with different configurations: man guided, remote controlled, semi or fully autonomous. The vehicle is actuated by means of two DC motors powered by two sealed lead-acid batteries that allows up to ten hours of operations. It gets on rubber tracks and is able to carry up to 200 kg payload. Also, it could be provided with low cost, but very reliable, sensors (like ultrasound rangers or low cost CCD sensors or webcams) as well as with more sophisticated as DGPS or laser ranger. The video shows the robot used for fully autonomous chemicals spraying operations when it is equipped with suitable tools, increasing operators safety and a lower level of environment chemical contamination.

Vision Robotics Corp: Autonomous Grape-Vine Pruner (Phase 1)

This prototype is the culmination of phase one of our development of a fully autonomous, robotic grape-vine pruner. This video summarizes our vision based mapping and actuation, demonstrates our current pruning capabilities, and documents our successful field demonstration for members of the grape and wine industry. We are currently in the process of securing investment for phase two of the project.
