AI for Agro-Food Lab (completed)
A collaboration between OnePlanet, Delft University of Technology, Eindhoven University of Technology, University of Twente and Wageningen University & Research.
De Zaale, 5612 AZ Eindhoven
The AI for Agro-Food lab is a collaboration of 4TU (the four universities of technology in The Netherlands) and OnePlanet in cooperation with industry partners and coordinated by Wageningen University & Research. The aim of the lab is to evolve a new generation of ecology-based sustainable agricultural production systems that are supported and enhanced by smart tailored technology.
The lab will provide methods and tools that form the base for both integrated solutions for production systems, as well as sociotechnical scenarios for the transition towards these systems. This lab will be a subset of the larger Synergia crossover program initiated by NWO.
Research projects
Smart crop and animal sensing: Developing dedicated sensors for applications in horticulture, dairy farming and arable farming.
Intelligent control and decision making: Developing sustainable methods for customisable autonomous decision-making and management support of specific farming challenges.
Robotic handling: Developing algorithms to enable the accomplishment of the robot actuation tasks.
