FLD-2026-005RUNNINGRobotics & Perception
Row-Crop Inspection Robot Field Trial
Hosted by Further Field Robotics · Lincolnshire, United Kingdom (field)
The brief
Further Field's inspection robots need to hold detection accuracy across changing light, weather, and crop growth stages that a lab never reproduces. You will be on the farm for the trial: instrumenting failures, retraining perception models against real field data, and validating improvements against the next day's run rather than a held-out test set.
What you'll need
- Coursework or equivalent experience in computer vision
- Willing to work outdoors in variable weather for the deployment term
- Valid passport for UK field placement
What you'll walk away with
- Measured perception accuracy improvement validated across a full trial
- Direct field robotics experience most graduates never get before employment
