粮食安全是一个社会问题。由于目前人类消耗的三分之一的食物依赖于动物授粉，这项研究为自然授粉者数量减少导致的食物供应减少提供了一个新兴的解决方案，以减少其对生态关系，生态系统保护和稳定性，作物植物群落遗传变异，花卉多样性，专业化和进化的影响。本文提出了一个概念性的技术路线图，自主授粉未来农业使用机器人微型飞行器授粉（MPRs）。这项研究为自主设计和制造提供了新的见解，并为提高生产效率提供了可能的方法，从而缩短了从实验室到市场的时间。自主MPRs是在智能农业产业的循环中使用人工智能和人类专业知识实现的。此外，这项工作确定了科学和技术的进步，预计将转化为拟议的监管框架内，在农业应用和超越MPRs的普遍使用。
Food security is one of the societal challenge topics. As one-third of all food consumed by humans relies on animal pollination currently, this research provides an emerging solution to food supply reduction caused by population shrinking of natural pollinators, so as to reduce its impact on ecological relationships, ecosystem conservation and stability, genetic variation in the crop plant community, floral diversity, specialisation and evolution. This paper develops a conceptual technical roadmap of autonomous pollination for future farming using robotic micro air vehicle pollinators (MPrs). The research provides new insights into autonomous design and manufacture and into possible ways to increase the production efficiency which shortens the time from lab to market. The autonomous MPrs are realized using artificial intelligence and human expertise in the loop for smart agricultural industry. Further, this work identifies scientific and technological advances that are expected to translate, within proposed regulatory frameworks, into the pervasive use of MPrs for agricultural applications and beyond.
