Author Information

Dr Eldert van Henten is Professor of Biosystems Engineering in the Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering Group at Wageningen University and Research, The Netherlands. From 2011 and 2023 he served as co-chair of the IEEE-RAS special interest group on Agricultural Robotics and Automation. In that period he was also co-Chair of the Technical Commission on Agricultural Robotics at euRobotics. He is a member of the CIGR International Commission of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering. Dr Yael Edan is Professor in Industrial Engineering at the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel, where she is Head of the Intelligent Robotics Laboratory and Director of the Agricultural, Biological and Cognitive (ABC) Robotics Initiative. Professor Edan is a member of the IEEE-RAS Special Interest Group on Agricultural Robotics and Automation and was a member of the American Society of Agricultural Engineers. She is involved in a number of EU research projects (including the Sweeper and CROPS Projects) and is internationally renowned for her research in such areas as human-robot collaboration. Dr George Adamides is a Senior Agricultural Research Officer at the Agricultural Research Institute in Cyprus. He holds a B.Sc. and an M.Sc. in Computer Science, both from Western Michigan University. He received his PhD in Information and Communication Systems from the Open University of Cyprus. His research work focuses on smart farming, specifically the introduction and application of robotics and Internet-of-Things, and aspects of Human-Computer Interaction, and Human-Robot Interaction. Professor James Lowenberg-DeBoer holds the Elizabeth Creak Chair in Agri-Tech Applied Economics at Harper Adams University (HAU), Newport, Shropshire, UK. He is responsible for economics in the Hands Free Farm (HFF) team at HAU. He is also past president of the International Society of Precision Agriculture (ISPA) and was co-editor of the journal Precision Agriculture 2016-2022. His research focuses on the economics of agricultural technology, especially precision agriculture and crop robotics. Lowenberg-DeBoer's research and outreach is founded in hands-on experience in agriculture, including production of maize and soybeans in NW Iowa in the USA. Dr Kees Lokhorst is senior scientist and specialized in Precision Livestock Farming, Robotics. He coordinates the agROBOfood project and is the coordinator of the Dutch agrifoodTEF. He is involved in several national and international research projects (e.g. WASP, BioBusiness, EU-PLF, IoF2020, ERANET ICT Agri, 4D4F, EIP focus group on mainstreaming precision agriculture, Smart Dairy Farming) concerning transition processes in (animal) farming systems. Research is focused on the possibilities of ICT and sensor information to support farmers in their daily management.
