Summary
The network for DeepFarmBots AI-based agricultural robotics for efficient and sustainable agriculture aims to create new products, processes and services for the use of agricultural robots in different application areas of agriculture. Special attention will be paid to the development of technical solutions that can be used in multiple robotic systems across applications. The central goal of the network is to develop new technical solutions for the essential, hitherto open tasks in agricultural robotics through synergistic cooperation between the participating companies and research institutions and to develop joint concepts for their marketing. The robot systems are intended to offer an alternative to current agricultural practices, some of which are not very environmentally friendly, and to replace them in the medium to long term. On the technological side, the R&D projects within the network aim in particular to link agricultural robotics with new approaches from artificial intelligence, especially deep learning, in order to significantly increase the precision and capabilities of robot-based systems.
