Transforming Pruning for Smallholder Agriculture with Enhanced Productivity and Working Conditions Using AR and Robotics.

AgRimate focuses on transforming pruning tasks for small-scale farmers by using Augmented Reality (AR) and Robotics technologies, enriched with Artificial Intelligence (AI). Tackling the significant challenges and labour-intensive aspects of pruning in high-value crops like olive groves and vineyards, AgRimate introduces an innovative and scalable solution. This solution relies on an artificial intelligence module capable of learning from expert human knowledge to address tree pruning challenges. This module extends its functionality to the solution through various tools, from a learning tool that adapts to the user's knowledge to an Augmented Reality solution providing real-time guidance during the pruning process with the human at the centre. It seamlessly integrates with two different robotic solutions, either assisting the user with exoskeletons or autonomously performing tasks with a highly advanced robot. Additionally, AgRimate incorporates a comprehensive assessment tool designed to evaluate the solution's impact, not only on farmers but also on rural communities. This holistic approach aims not only to enhance productivity and resource efficiency but also to improve social inclusiveness and working conditions within the agricultural sector. By forging a consortium of leading research institutions, SMEs, and agricultural stakeholders from across Europe, AgRimate is at the forefront of cultivating sustainable, technologically advanced, and socially responsible farming practices. Ultimately, AgRimate stands as a beacon of innovation in agricultural technology, keenly aligned with the EU's broader goals of digital transformation, environmental sustainability, and socio-economic equity, showcasing a path forward for future farming that prioritizes both yield and community wellbeing.
