Project description
New network to bring more robots in the field
Mining, agriculture, forestry and construction are the main applications of hardworking field robots, which may operate on the ground, underwater, in air, or in space. On farms, there are robots built for specialised tasks such as strawberry picking and milking cows. At mines, robots are used to map flooded passages and analyse mineral concentrations. The EU-funded DEEPFIELD project aims to boost deep learning in field robotics. It will assist Portugal’s Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering, Technology and Science (INESC TEC) to become a centre of excellence in field robotics via links with top-notch European research institutions.
