Farming of crops, horticulture and cereals has seen unprecedented challenges, with sustainability issues, workforce shortages and tightening financial constraints exacerbated by COVID-19 and Brexit. There is a growing need to find alternative transformative solutions. The proposed fully-autonomous machinery offers the potential to ease the burden of crop-scouting on time-poor growers and allow for improved use of resources at an affordable price.During this 12-month project, the team will develop an autonomous platform to integrate UAVs with UGVs, offering capacities such as auto-calibration of cameras, auto-docking and auto-charging of the UAV. The system will be tested and demonstrated on a farm.

农作物种植、园艺和谷物种植面临前所未有的挑战，新冠肺炎和英国脱欧加剧了可持续性问题、劳动力短缺和财政紧缩。越来越需要找到替代的变革解决方案。拟议中的全自动机器有可能减轻时间紧张的种植者的作物侦察负担，并以可承受的价格改善资源的利用。在这个为期12个月的项目中，该团队将开发一个自主平台，将无人机与ugv集成在一起，提供摄像头的自动校准、无人机的自动对接和自动充电等功能。该系统将在一个农场进行测试和演示。
