We are interested in participating in a consortium on Topic 1 (Improved resilience and health of crops) to apply our expertise in high-performance sensors and embedded AI.
This could include the development of in-ground sensors to automatically adjust irrigation based on intelligent predictions, hyperspectral imaging to monitor crop quality directly from farming machinery, or drones to apply biocontrol products and measure their effectiveness.
We are particularly interested in processing of sensor data "on the edge" to make predictions and enable intelligent decision-making at the point of action - in an energy-efficient way and with small bandwidth requirements!
At Fraunhofer IMS, we specialize in cutting-edge research and development, focusing on high-performance sensors and embedded artificial intelligence solutions. Our goal is to apply this expertise to the food sector, covering every stage of the food chain, from farm to fork!
