emirates7 - Khalifa University of Science and Technology has announced its participation in the 36th edition of the International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2024) by showcasing 23 innovative robotics, AI solutions, and drone technologies. This event, themed “Robotics for Sustainable Development,” marks the first time IROS is being held in Abu Dhabi, making it a significant occasion for the Middle East and Africa (MENA) region.
At their stand in the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Center (ADNEC), Khalifa University is presenting projects that highlight advancements in robotics and AI aimed at sustainable development across various sectors, including marine, space, telecommunications, computing, transportation, agriculture, and wildlife conservation.
Among the featured projects are:
TomFormer: A system for real-time disease detection in tomato plants.
UTM (Unmanned Traffic Management): Solutions for managing drone traffic.
Lunar Rover: Designed for lunar exploration missions.
Exoskeleton: A wearable robot that enhances human capabilities.
Smart Trash Bin: Utilizes computer vision for efficient waste separation.
Ocean Monitoring and Cleaning: Focused on sustainable marine ecosystems.
Autonomous Port Inspection: Enhancing maritime security.
Houbara Robot: Used for studying the behavior of Houbara birds in their natural habitats.
Coral Reef Inspection: For monitoring coral health.
Autonomous Driving Platform: A platform for developing self-driving technologies.
Various drone initiatives, including firefighting drones and UAV swarms for inspection and tracking.
Additional projects include:
Dronelea*: A project monitoring and analyzing agricultural fields.
Spider Robot: Designed for climbing diverse terrains.
