Dr. Pablo Oliveira Antonino (Fraunhofer IESE) and Alex Foessel (Balanced Engineering LLC) talk about their project and the innovation in the Agricultural sector.
Testing highly automated and autonomous agricultural vehicles is challenging due to the high costs and labor-intensive nature of the process. It requires verifying a wide range of system configurations and scenarios to evaluate and release new technical systems and features for the agricultural sector. Real test drives on this scale are often impractical, making virtual test benches essential. Our solution "FERAL" leverages digital twins and simulations to address these challenges, enabling continuous engineering principles. This approach allows for cost-efficient validation and optimization of advanced smart farming equipment, ensuring seamless integration into modern agricultural operations.
