Aperobot
Workshop 4.0, the School of Engineering (HEI) and Les Celliers de Sion have developed the first robot able to pour you a glass of wine. This new robot was first used during the 2020 Open Cellar Days in Valais.
In this project, the researchers of the HEI developed the Human-Machine-Interface used to process drink orders, the weighing electronics for filling the glasses and the high-level control logic for the robot (i.e. for choosing the correct wine glass or changing an empty bottle).
