Description
Jonathan Rogers is a professor at Georgia Tech who’s focused on designing and prototyping new robots for use in nontraditional environments. In his newest project, the nontraditional environment is a farm and the robot’s name is Tarzan. If you think a farm and a swinging robot are an odd combination, tune in to hear Jonathan Rogers explain how they’re a perfect match and why this unlikely merger can help ensure the future of the world’s food supply. Here’s a peek at what you’ll discover inside this episode: * Why robots are important to the future of farming * What rapid throughput phenotyping is and how it affects your future * Why drones aren’t ideal for large field use on farms and ground robots aren’t either * What sloths have to do with robotics If you’re loving what you hear on this podcast, remember to subscribe and donate!
