Actions taken
Our internal work is structured by group:
A1 Mapping the needs and skills of our members
A2 Scientific and technological monitoring
B2 Setting up joint and/or collaborative projects
F1 Security and Risk Analysis
F2 Testing and Trial Methods
G1 Normative Analysis
G2 Regulations
Furthermore, several initiatives aim to support the development of the agricultural robotics sector, including:
In December 2019 in Toulouse, we organized the first FIRA scientific symposium on the theme “Towards reliable and safe robots offering new tools for agriculture.” Fourteen scientists presented the latest advances in the sector on this topic. The symposium brought together nearly 200 industry professionals, researchers, and stakeholders in the robotics sector.

As in other regions of France, conditions there are sometimes difficult, including slopes exceeding 25%. Operators are highly exposed to pesticides and the risk of accidents. Thanks to RobAgri’s efforts within the community, several companies and consortia submitted applications.
