The consortium is made of two French and Brazilian laboratories, namely LAAS-CNRS and the ‘Robotics, Action, Perception (RAP)’ team on the one hand and the UFPE – Centro de Informatica (CIn) on the other hand. They bring complementary experience and skills to fulfill the project aim. The first one will be in charge of workpackages related to robotics, control and perception, while the second one will handle those devoted to artificial intelligence and computer science. More precisely, two teams from CIn will be involved in the project: the ISoDRoS (Intelligent Software for Dynamic and Robotic Systems) team aims to contribute with the tasks related to visual SLAM, navigation planning, and computer vision, while the GRVM (Virtual Reality and Multimedia Research) team will take care of man/machine interaction. These complementary skills will be highly interesting to propose efficient solutions for orchards navigation, obtain a proof of concept and pave the way towards a dedicated commercial robot.
