AgroBot
The amount of people available to do the agricultural work is decreasing, but there is an increasing demand for food in our growing population. Agriculture is looking for economy of scales, but is meeting boundaries as far as soil erosion is concerned and as far as what is legally possible transport on the roads.
In the AgroBot project we are developing 5 demonstrators in an agricultural environment: a scarecrow, a fodder robot, a potato weed remover, a weedy and a beetharvest robot. Developing these demonstrators requires a close cooperation between biology, science and industry.
