Phenorob
PhenoRob performs world-leading research in robotics and phenotyping for sustainable crop production. Our vision is to transform crop production by optimizing breeding and farming management through developing and deploying new technologies. PhenoRob addresses a real-world problem with a technology-oriented approach. Our scientists have backgrounds in computer science, geodesy, robotics, plant science, soil science, economics, and environmental science. This interdisciplinary team forms the only DFG-funded Cluster of Excellence focusing on agriculture.
Active Perception
Active perception tries to answer the question of where to look at to gain more information. This is an important task in any application where occlusions appear and scenes need to be observed from different angles. Especially for robots operating in complex unstructured environments, active perception is key to efficient spatio-temporal mapping.
AID4Crops
AID4Crops will bring together research about what can be sensed with what should be sensed. To do this, we will develop novel AI algorithms to enable autonomous monitoring (sensing) and management (forecasting and decision making) for horticultural crops. These approaches will be deployed in horticulture as it provides a set of realistic yet challenging environments with crops grown both indoors (in glasshouses) and outdoor (in orchards); the indoor environment provides greater control over the growth of the crops.
