Volkan Isler: Agricultural Robotics

Описание: I will provide a brief overview of the autonomous systems developed for agricultural applications in the Robotics, Sensing, and Networks (RSN) Lab. These applications include yield mapping for specialty crops, aerial and aquatic animal monitoring, strawberry harvesting, mid-season weeding in corn fields, and mowing cow pastures.

🔸 Faculty Talk: Agricultural Robotics

🔸 Speaker: Volkan Isler, Professor, UT Austin

Dr. Volkan Isler is a professor in the Department of Computer Science at The University of Texas at Austin and is also a core member of Texas Robotics. He recently moved to UT after 16+ years at the University of Minnesota. During this time, he spent some time in industry: From 2021 to 2023, he was the head of Samsung's AI center in NY.

Dr. Isler's general research area is robotics applied to environmental monitoring and agricultural automation (and more recently, home automation.) He is especially interested in perception-action coupling and networked robotics. A lot of his work involves designing planning algorithms and perceptual representations which incorporate sensing, communication and actuation constraints.
