Mobile Robot Station

ILVO's TEF Mobile Containers are fully operational, secure, and moveable charging hubs for agricultural robots. These containers, which are standard 20 ft sea containers, facilitate easy transportation of robots. The TEF Containers provide a flexible and convenient solution for charging and storing agricultural robots near fields or other off-site locations. Energy is supplied off-grid through 6 Denim Solar Panels, but the DC-coupled inverter charger also allows for connection to the grid or a generator. Once the robot has completed its tasks, it can be securely stored inside the container with a lock.

What could be offered through this facility?

Moving robot platforms to (external) sites (fields, forests, etc.) for:
- Data acquisition with AGRs and UAVs,
- Testing, Validation, and Evaluation of Mobility Algorithms (Mapping, Localisation, SLAM, and Navigation)
The status of robots can be monitored remotely through a Grafana dashboard.
