- At his lab at the University of Pennsylvania, Vijay Kumar and his team have created autonomous aerial robots inspired by honeybees. Their latest breakthrough: Precision Farming, in which swarms of robots map, reconstruct and analyze every plant and piece of fruit in an orchard, providing vital information to farmers that can help improve yields and make water management smarter.

Great engineer and he could not possibly be a better speaker and presenter. This guy is really cool.
+doodelay #lol . his speech is very interesting, but this engineering will be appreciated us to invent new instruments in the world
g
+doodelay He is probably a professor.
Even his style is on point. Classic with balls.
They have smaller drones with 3grams of shape charge and camera's
Vijay Kumar and your team, I just love how you keep making your robots more and more flexible in terms of size and what it can do. I root for your team!!
Thiss video changes my mind about technology in agriculture.
Amazing. I should have watched this 4years ago. I thought drones are just for fun playing, but this opens my mind to a new and fresh perspective.
Vijay you're awesome sir. Keep up the amazing work.
Amazing- this is only the beginning!
Big fan of Dr.Kumar and his "Kumar Lab" of GRASP, Pennsylvania. Thumbs up..:)
Great talk. Clear and innovating ideas.
I think the swarm algorithm would be great added to cars and other vehicles. All cars know what other cars are around them, and can coordinate merging, moving as one from traffic lights, move aside for emergency vehicles, evasive manoeuvres to avoid accidents, and so on.
Need to change lanes? Start indicating, and the cars in that lane in front of you go a little faster, and/or behind a little slower, a gap forms and you slot in effortlessly. You are in a turning lane and the traffic lights only allow 3-5 cars with manual driving control before changing. With 'swarm' a block of 7-10 cars that move as one, can get through in the same time.
'Swarm' would be but one aspect that autonomous cars of the future would have I think.
Nice idea
This is already being researched in self driving cars!
VIjakumar
That's true
To all the people who disliked this video- 8:23
Haha 😂
vijakumar
you smart bro... yes very smart... microwave a potato
lol😂😂
5 min for 1 large potato :]
simply wonderful
This reminds me of the map making robots in Prometheus.
David Patterson Where do you think they got the idea, that movie pushed them in new directions, gave them new ideas, things they never would've!..
David Patterson I was looking for this comment
My thought as well..those 'puppies'😃 !!
It's the other way dear. The movie got those ideas by communicating with people involved in technology.
Excellent presentation and concept!
Great work! The promise of cheap helper robots is slowly coming to fruition.
Absolutely brilliant
This needs more views
what a nice topic !
this is really useful and life changing
This guy is amazing!
Parabéns. Vocês são demais.
I think we can also take it next level by applying the swarm concept on nano or cube-satellites along with origami principles for the next revolution in Space Technology.
Great talk by Vijay Kumar but still wondering when will TED talk?
amazing engineering
Thank you sir...
India gro in this kind of technology very firstly...
If you are using a swarm navigation software for crop production, you would want the software to also interact with the picking robots. The drones would provide repeating navigation verification for the pickers and able to monitor for exterior events.
FUCKING AMAZING. Such mapping technologies were only real in sci fi movies until now. Thank you for your great work.
Fantastic!
This is so amazing, yet terrifying at the same time.
just like your mom
Can anyone tell me the name of the software being used at 1:30
Great Work 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤🎉❤
Very nice, and potentially very, very important in aiding computer simulation softwares.
great work
This is needed in large hydro/aquaponic growing operations.
Amazing..
this is exactly what I'm working for :D cheers!
Me too:D
The nerds will save the world, all hail the nerds!!
Why thank you
well, they r the ones who started chaos.
Very interesting concept - The mapping would be helpful in many areas of our civilization - for example it could be used in city survelliance and check-ups
+Argontrax Drone hunting would become the new passtime of the "youth"
Rum Dreg aye - that also would be a very useful application xD
+Argontrax Interestingly, there is an entire South Park episode based on the premise you suggested.
Aman Khan haha actually i haven't seen that episode
You should!
8:30 just I say Amazing !!
Great.!
I'll be impressed when the communication sensors on these drones are advanced enough to send a swarm of them into a large cave and have them map out all the different tunnels and dead ends while staying in contact with each other to be able to regroup if need be. That or a similarly difficult task, such as mapping a mine for a corporation or mapping enemy tunnel systems (could be used by military as well as law enforcement in mexico etc), or even large subterranean structures (enemy underground base, forward position, etc).
This could be incredible for guarding places. Swarms of drones could fly around and alert someone if there are people crossing a fence line, breaking into a building, etc. Security Guards could have moving cameras instead of limited and fixed to the wall!
Except that the battery life on these only allows for around 8-10 minutes of flight. Kinda hard to work with when you're on an 8 hour shift.
Seen Black Mirror yet?
I want the articles that he cited,... please send the links.
This is really cool
this is amazing
Awsome !
Amazing
Wow that's quite amazing. It may not seem like much, but just think about the numbers on their current scale: if the yield is enough to support 6 billion people, then increasing it by 10% would effectively make it capable of supporting 6.6 billion people. It's not everyone, but it's still better than before. And that's only the yield part, imagine if we can save water by doing this, we could have more farms. There is really a lot to be excited about here!
Fifield would sure love these puppies!
You could beam the power to little quad drones to save weight if the transmitters are in the right places in a building or field. I thought wireless power could be used for drone swarms within quarter mile radius.
Genius... Better than the best...
Does anyone know what the app is called, how to find it, or even if it's available? I'd like to play with this.
Is this done by depth camera like iPhonex, I am very much interested to work like this project, Professor I am your fan.
This is really interesting. Though the problem is scaling it for acres and dealing with wind speeds. Grain crops for example. There are a lot of competing implementations, some even including stereophotogrammetry, but what can be inferred from the data is still somewhat sketchy.
I just wish the things could fly lower, legally, and get better resolution.
How can we implement localisation technology
Outstanding Presentation. I can buy gyro copters that fly for a duration of between 8 to 24 minutes. Can I expect the same lackluster flight duration from these drones?
this must be combined as a device on all drones, to create a virtual world map that drones can share and use for obstacle avoidance, a live built map worked on by all drones in an area refreshing and updating live, when objects are moved they update the virtual world map.
Maybe someday we won't need pesticides and each tree has its own little army of protectors :P
There was a different ted-talk (partially) about shooting down flies with lazers, maybe that could be mounted on the drones.
The control systems already exist. I wonder how far have it been scaled up into large scale transportation such as in military transport airships?
Cool!
so cool
"I see you've met my fleet of aerial assault robots" - Broken Matt Hardy 2016
1:52 So? Which is it? Is it one problem, or the first?
Aren't they using lidar for mapping those orchids ?
The tiny drones are so cute
that will cost you $4000 please
+havingMC Dont worry, next year it will be 2000, then 1000, then suddenly kids will be shocked that their parents ever lived in a world where everyone didnt have tiny drones
I like this drone revolution we're going through.
I wonder if you could sit at a picnic table in the summer and with voice ask your drone to go pick you a really specific apple you saw earlier. It could pick that one and you could go and check it was that exact one that was picked.
Maybe it could go into your house and bring you your keys once it's mapped where the front door is, the interiors and a few places you normally keep them. Maybe a swarm of about 6 of them could scoot around the house at a set time each day feeding your pets while you're away on holiday and reporting back to you on Twitter so you know if they've done it or if they ran out of battery or failed. (If no report, phone a neighbour to continue?)
This video makes this stuff seem more 'near-future' than far future.
hey, that scanning technology is like the cave scanning in the Prometheus movie.
Nice that you noted
I believe it's called lydar.
@@TrentTube or could be a 360 camera. With a live stitching algorithm.
Do you know how valuable swarm intelligence would be to the military? I think Tommy Boy highlighted one of the advantages best by saying, "Your firearms are useless against them!"
It reminds me of this short film :
th-cam.com/video/9fa9lVwHHqg/w-d-xo.html
Genial!
what the drones use to communicate and sense each other's?
thats cool
Ted I want one of your drone please !!!!
7:00 reminds me of Big Hero 6
Como faz pra me representar aqui no Brasil ?
Are they using Lidar sensors ??
this reminds me that episode of black mirror... the bees one...
Great video! Very well explained.. DRONE TOURISM could be another area where one may be able to make money with Drones, one could get permit from the city/county to fly drone around a historical monument or something like that (for e.g. Statue of Liberty in NYC), then let tourist enjoy the flight wearing VR Headset, they get an immersive FPV experience & feel as if they are really flying! along with this the Operator may offer to take 'Dronies (Drone Selfies: photos + videos)' for the tourists and give it to them on a memory card, so that tourist may share it on there social media. Drone Operator may charge per flight/person or offer a package (FPV + Dronies). Wouldn't it be better than hiring a helicopter.. City/county can earn revenue from issuing monthly/quarterly 'Tourist Site Permits (TSP)' to drone operators and this would be a great way to generate employment opportunity for the City/County. Permit issue process may be automated on the lines of 'FAA Drone Registration' process via dedicated website or app. The drone operators can make money and be self-employed, with secured business, as the tourist footfalls are assured and they don't have to do any marketing to find business. Drone Operators can start with entry level drones that are suitable for this type of work and upgrade as an when there earnings increase. What are your thoughts about this idea? Keep up the good work.. Thanks
I for one welcome our new flying robot overlords.
Butterworthy be careful what you ask for
i wonder if the swarm algorithm is or will be open sourced
draganfly is undoubtedly the best drone company!
It is providing support in ukraine by supplying ukrainian people with medicines, insulin and much more.
with this it is increasing its visibility and brand awareness.
has an experienced team and unique technology, currently very underestimated based on its potential!
Thank you for not putting stingers or small tasers on any of them when you said swarm I was thinking of jellyfish or bees.
Sir burning leaser light properties
I remember seeing similar concept in a movie, I think it's called Prometheus, where people release some kind of balls which scan the corridors of caves, and then maps it. I remembered it as something really important, and fun to see. Good to see we're getting there.
+Micic00 I was thinking the same thing :)
Amrush Prence Exact scene?
It was one of the geo engineers he let a few of them loose and they transmit a holographic image back to the ship
The GreatOne It looks so useful and important that I think something like that will definitely be a reality in a few years
Name of the app!!!
Guys... the future is here.
Aragniphobia *some things
Aragniphobia They also give you longer life and the ability to do more with that life.
Aragniphobia So what happens if you're wrong?
Aragniphobia Possibility of a god is 50/50.
Top kek m8
if the future is here, then where's what's coming next located?
10% doesn't sound like much for costs involved
ik vind deze mooi
Did Terminator movie make a good. prediction of the future?
sir m very much intersted in making flying machine can anyone please help me getting me the course material for making flying machines
How much is it cost?
Good video. Question: Does this video provide support to agricultural reform? Yes. Does this video detract from focus and action taking on real solutions for positive agricultural and environmental change? Answer: Yes.
"Now there's one problem with robots like this.
The first problem is....
The second problem is..."
Good talk though.
cool
Someone could tell me what I should study for getting involved on that? Software engineering, aerospace engineering, computing science....
Thanks
+Cobo Computer engineering.. possibly electrical. my my houses mate is third year comp eng he writes image recognition for mapping out a room for is labs. electrical engineering would also apply for mechatronics and robotics... aerospace engineering is not as important. the algorithms involved are the HARDEST part of image recognition. computer engineering (software engineering as you say) is the most valuable in this field
+Matthew Telford Thanks you a lot for this great information and help. I think that the most I like are the algorthim involved , so probably I will take that path.
Thanks you again!
lol when is see these, my mind goes straight to military usage.
judging from the responses to this youtube, a lot of people are very much asleep. :-(
reptilespantoso do you know why all wars are brutal? Because people die. What’s wrong with robots that fight wars for you?!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Laws_of_Robotics
Beka_xD except people would not be harmed if the battlefield was full of only robots
It's so dangerous
I really appreciate that. There is lot of hard work behind the scenes. But, may I ask a basic question about how harm is the electromagnetic energy generated by these robots or drones. Is there any measure ?? Can we justify by any means ?? Is this not a real harm to the other living species like birds those usually live around the farms ?? Sorry for my ignorance, but I am really concerned about it.
I got caught a drone in my eye!.
At least if all the bees eventually die we'll be able to make artificial bees...
Black mirror already did that
U cant
Dan D they did a U.V. tried to play God and made love bugs to eat mosquitoes and failed so they only eat the paint off your car or vehicles ect.
Not close, yet. Turns out flowers require quite a lot of precision.
If all the bees die, we will eventually die too.
They can take real life locations and turn it into video games map by this technology.
Thing is it's illegal... think about terrorists...
the dream of what GTA should be
creative idea, who would have thought of that?
Mark Kent so what? Google maps does the same thing?
this is a future
What are the red lights in the room at 8:32
tracking cameras that actually map the environmet
8:16 Oops One "robot" drone just dropped.
