Robotics for Nature: disruptive technological approaches to tackle conservation challenges
|
The Sectoral Hubs of the University of Girona and the Global University Network for Innovation organize a series of conferences on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations. For the University of Girona, sustainability is a key challenge and one of its main values. With this series of conferences, we continue to bet on our commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals in order to contribute, collectively, to the environmental, economic and social aspects of sustainability. Those conferences will involve renowned local and international experts who will reflect on the need to establish a dialogue between science and society to achieve the SDGs by 2030. The cycle consists of 8 sessions, the first 3 of a more transversal and introductory nature and the other 5 focused on more specific topics. The session on Wednesday 24 March from 6 to 8 pm (CET) could be of special interest to you. This session explores the tools offered by robotics in a broad sense (field robotics, artificial intelligence, computer vision, big data...) to address nature conservation challenges. Robotics for Nature: disruptive technological approaches to tackle conservation challenges The State of Nature in Europe 2020: A call for action Rebecca Noebel, Researcher at the Ecologic Institute Berlin & co-author of the State of Nature in the EU Report 2020 (European Environment Agency) From dirty, dull and dangerous robots to collaborative robots for conservation efforts. What's next in the robotics roll out? Andra Keay, Managing Director at Silicon Valley Robotics, Visiting Scholar at CITRIS People and Robots Lab & Founder of Women in Robotics Moderator: Rafael Garcia, Scientific Director of the Robotics Sectoral Hub & Professor at VICOROB, Universitat de Girona + info & registration (free): www.udg.edu/sdgs All conferences will be conducted i English. |
