Lely has always stood behind the value of its milking robots, even for businesses with more than 500 cows. This has led to the development of an all-round concept that goes much further than just milking alone.
After the industrial revolution and the Internet revolution, we are now poised for the robotics revolution. Influential robotics researchers and industry leaders made this prediction in many different ways Friday at the Contextual Robotics Technologies International Forum at UC San Diego.
Iowa State University faculty members are developing a new facility that will utilize a specially designed robot to gather unprecedented amounts of data on the growth of plants under different environmental conditions.
Dr. Dylan Shell, assistant professor of computer science and engineering at Texas A&M University, was a co-organizer of "The Future of Multiple Robot Research and its Multiple Identities." The workshop was held at the 2014 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) in Chicago, Illinois.
Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada has selected ING Robotic Aviation, a high tech robotic aircraft company, to demonstrate a new method for assessing crop vegetation. They will be using an aerial multi-spectral camera to provide detailed, real-time information on crop health. To the uninitiated the result looks like an Andy Warhol picture, while to an agronomist the image is full of data.
Since 2010, the company Quetzal Aerospace, based in the city of Queretaro, in the middle of Mexico, began manufacturing drones. A little more than four years after its birth, the company has expressed its intention to use these platforms to optimize aeronautical techniques for farmers, in order to promote "precision agriculture" in the country.
Today drones take on a higher purpose as SNAP Vision Technologies introduces a personal aerial survey drone called the StitchCAM, a Kickstarter.com project that gives farmers an affordable, precise way to assess the health of their crops, increase crop yields and use water more efficiently.
The DLG (German Agricultural Society) Field Days 2014, held recently at the DLG Crop Protection Center at Bernberg-Strenzfeld, Germany, showcased many new innovations in crop production for the German and other European producers present.
The region's most impressive showcase of high-tech agricultural innovation is just two weeks away! Register today for the Delta AgTech Symposium: Advancing UAVs in Agriculture, to be held July 7-8, 2014, at Agricenter International in Memphis.
This growing season, crop researchers at the University of Illinois are experimenting with the use of drones – unmanned aerial vehicles – on the university's South Farms.
