This event is the second in the series of knowledge exchange events hosted by the Agri-Robotics Regulatory Network (ARRNet) and supported by a grant from Innovate UK. ARRNet, a collaboration between the UK Agri-Tech Centre, Lincoln Institute for Agri-food Technology, Harper Adams University, Manufacturing Technology Centre, is working to overcome the remaining barriers to the widespread adoption of robotics and automation in agriculture. Through developing technical standards, training and testing, ARRNet aims to ensure the reliability and safety of Robotics and Autonomous Systems (RAS) in agriculture, whilst also supporting commercialisation and adoption. Bring your robots and try in-field test scenarios to assess safety and performance factors. Get your free ticket
