Scientists have created an AI-powered “grape ripeness detector” designed to make wine production more efficient \u2014 combining the use of technology with vineyard expertise in pursuit of the best wine for consumers.<\/p>\n

The new portable handheld sensor provides instant and accurate data about whether grapes are ready to harvest, scientists in the U.K. say.<\/p>\n

Given that harvesting grapes is extremely time-sensitive, researchers at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) have invented a portable optical sensor that uses state-of-the-art machine learning to give winemakers instant information<\/a> about the ripeness of their grapes, news agency SWNS reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The device removes the need for manual sampling and slow destructive testing, the researchers said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Xuechun Wang, Ph.D., a post-doctoral researcher at QMUL, specializes in applying machine learning algorithms<\/a> to building intelligent sensors.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Our technology uses optical sensors to detect how grapes absorb and reflect different wavelengths of light,” Wang said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“As grapes ripen, their chemical composition changes \u2014 which alters their optical response,” she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“By analyzing these spectral patterns using AI algorithms, we can estimate grape ripeness directly on the vine, without damaging the grape.”<\/p>\n

The sensor is known as RipenAI.<\/p>\n

Wang said it could be held by hand, allowing grape pickers to instantly check ripeness before harvesting across the wine industry.<\/p>\n

It could also be installed across a vineyard to monitor grapes continuously for ripeness and crop health, she said.<\/p>\n

The QMUL team is working on integrating the technology into a robotic grape picker<\/a> in a related project with Extend Robotics and Saffron Grange Vineyard in Essex, SWNS reported.<\/p>\n

The technology is said to promise significant business benefits for winemakers.<\/p>\n

Nick Edwards, a director at Saffron Grange Vineyard, said, “Harvesting grapes at the right time is one of the most important decisions a grower makes when producing the best quality wine<\/a>. This requires careful monitoring of key parameters such as sugar and acidity from veraison through to harvest.<\/p>\n

“It’s essential that grapes are picked at their correct level of ripeness. The wine style<\/a> ultimately defines the ideal harvest window, dictating the balance of sugar, acidity and taste the winemaker is seeking.<\/p>\n

“Ripening also varies across vineyards,” Edwards also noted, “depending on factors such as clonal variety, soil type, location, exposure and highly changeable weather.<\/a>“<\/p>\n

He said that “at Saffron Grange, we focus exclusively on producing premium-quality sparkling wines, and data plays a critical role in our harvest decisions. Timely access to accurate ripeness information allows us to forward plan harvest labor and winery preparation with confidence.”<\/p>\n

He added, “RipenAI will support this approach by providing non-destructive, real-time insight into grape ripeness across our vineyard.”<\/p>\n

With the new technology, winemakers will have “the ability to repeatedly assess the same bunches throughout the ripening period \u2026 [delivering] an even clearer picture of ripeness progression than traditional destructive sampling,” SWNS reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Harvesting grapes at precisely the right time also helps minimize the need for interventions such as de-acidification \u2026 supporting the production of higher-quality sparkling wines. We are very excited<\/a> to be part of this project.”<\/p>\n

Armed with encouraging early data from field trials at Saffron Grange Vineyard, the scientists are seeking more vineyards, agritech companies and even fruit orchards to help them test a new prototype during the next harvest season, they say.<\/p>\n

Professor Lei Su of QMUL added, “RipenAI will shape the future of smart harvesting for a growing industry where timing and precision [make] the difference between success and failure,” referencing Britain’s rapidly expanding wine industry.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The technology is adaptable for apples, berries<\/a> and more, the creators say.<\/p>\n
