Automation technology is developing rapidly, not least in agriculture. Several of the biggest challenges in vehicular automation technology, such as complex interactions with other road users, are less problematic for agricultural vehicles than for road vehicles. There is therefore potential for comparatively rapid development and market introduction.
The purpose of this project is to develop important elements for automation of field work for plant cultivation and verify them in real operation on an existing agricultural machine. This includes, in addition to control systems for vehicle propulsion, also control of implements, security, computer communication and interfaces with other hardware and software. The goal is to make open source code available for systems that can be used as a software platform for autonomous agricultural vehicles, which can then be used to develop systems that are increasingly powerful, cheap and environmentally friendly plant cultivation systems.
Automationstekniken utvecklas snabbt, inte minst inom jordbruket. Flera av de största utmaningarna inom fordonsområdet, såsom komplexa interaktioner med andra trafikanter, är mindre problematiska för jordbruksfordon än för vägfordon. Det finns därför potential för en relativt snabb utveckling och marknadsintroduktion.
Syftet med detta projekt är att utveckla viktiga element för automatisering av fältarbetet för odling av växter och verifiera dem i verklig drift på en befintlig jordbruksmaskin. Detta inkluderar, förutom styrsystem för framdrivning av fordon, även styrning av redskap, säkerhet, datorkommunikation och gränssnitt med annan hårdvara och programvara. Målet är att göra öppen källkod tillgänglig för system som kan användas som en mjukvaruplattform för autonoma jordbruksfordon, som sedan kan användas för att utveckla system som blir allt kraftfullare, billiga och miljövänligare växter.

A primary reason for unhealthy legs and claws are unsuitable floor properties in dairy houses,
which may result in slippery floors and slip injuries to cows and mastitis.
The hygiene of a floor surface and floor properties affect the cow claw/floor interaction and gait.
The aim is to determine an …
