Performance and sustainability testing of robotic or AI-driven solutions

This service addresses the need for reliable and actionable insights into the performance and sustainability of AI-driven or robotic systems. By providing detailed assessments of key sustainability indicators, such as energy and input consumption per hectare, the service helps identify areas for optimisation and improvement. Customers receive valuable data on the resilience, efficiency, and environmental impact of their solutions, enabling them to meet sustainability goals effectively. After completing the service, customers gain access to a comprehensive report detailing the methodology, test results, and specific recommendations for enhancing the tested system’s design or functionality. This ensures that the solutions can be optimised to perform better under real-world conditions, reducing operational risks and enhancing reliability. Workshops and additional guidance are available to support the implementation of improvements, ensuring the customer achieves tangible benefits from the service.

The service is delivered through a structured workflow designed to assess the performance level of systems incorporating AI algorithms, focusing on parameters that indicate the achievement of required sustainability indicator values. The customer provides a functional prototype or research model of the solution, along with detailed technical documentation and a description of the technology to be validated. This includes relevant parameters, metrics, and limit ranges. Based on the provided information, a comprehensive analysis is performed to identify critical points in the technology. A detailed plan is then developed, defining the scope, methodology, and schedule of activities, which is reviewed and approved by the customer before testing begins. The service includes physical tests to measure key parameters such as: • Input usage per hectare (e.g., fuel, fertilizers, herbicides) • Effectiveness and productivity per hectare • Resilience to environmental factors like impact, vibration, and extreme temperatures • Susceptibility to electromagnetic interference (EMI) These tests are carried out using specialized equipment and methodologies, ensuring precision and reliability. Data collected during the tests is analyzed in detail to validate the technological process and the system's performance. Results are delivered in a concise report, including the methodology, test cases, and recommendations for optimization. If requested, additional post-test support is provided, such as workshops to discuss results and guidance on implementing suggested improvements. The service is flexible and tailored to the client’s specific needs, ensuring professionalism and commitment throughout the process.

The service can be customised based on specific client needs. Testing plans and methodologies are tailored to evaluate parameters critical to achieving sustainability goals, following customer-provided guidelines or applicable standards.Additional features, such as high-speed process analysis or modal analysis, can be included and may require minor prototype modifications, like attaching sensors. A fully functional prototype and technical documentation are essential for service execution.Key limitations include prototype size and weight constraints, prior resource reservations, and potential risks during endurance testing. All client information is handled confidentially, with the option to sign an NDA. Timeframes and costs are determined individually, ensuring flexibility and professional support at every stage.
