Introduction
Mobile Living Laboratory is a movable facility owned by ACENTAURI team at INRIA. This facility was cofunded by AgrifoodTEF.
This facility is a movable laboratory designed to meet the requirements for providing Agrifood-TEF services by INRIA, France. The mobile living laboratory (MLL) is equipped with power generators, ground (AGR) and aerial (UAV) robots, computers, communication system (LAN, WiFi, 4G/5G) etc. for development, testing, monitoring and experimental purposes, along with the living necessities for work at experimental sites. An external trolley is also attached with this MLL to carry the ground and aerial robots, power backup generators, fuel oil (petroleum, diesel, etc.) and other necessary stuff. There is a capacity of three persons/engineers to work simultaneously in the MLL.
This facility offers:
Moving to experimental sites (agriculture fields, forests, green houses etc.) for:
- Data Acquisition with Autonomous Ground Robots (AGRs), and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)
- Testing, Validation, and Evaluation of Mobility Algorithms (Mapping, Localization, SLAM, and Navigation)
For this facility, a customized monitoring systems has been built to monitor the status of robots
