AI and farm robots are opening up new possibilities in agriculture - environmentally friendly weed and pest control is one of them.
Ever heard of edible electronics? Sounds like a contradiction in terms, but it could be a solution to reducing electronic waste, among other benefits.
Modern agricultural robots pick even delicate fruits such as strawberries or tomatoes. They are could be set to solve several big problems in agriculture.
Inefficient sorting means 25 percent of materials end up wrongly in landfills. AI is increasingly helping recycling centres ensure everything ends up where it belongs.
Fighting weeds in farming and agriculture is just one of the promising uses of AI, machine learning, and robotics.
Researchers have begun deploying remote-controlled robotic devices in the waters off the island of Lesvos, Greece to assist rescue efforts for refugees arriving by boat.
Researchers want to use the "SOL-AI" AI system to produce more efficient materials for photovoltaic systems. It's trained on a huge data set and can generate new materials based on the required properties.
Artificial intelligence has long since solved complex tasks and made our everyday lives easier. But do intelligent computer programs also provide new solutions for environmental and climate protection?
Less than one percent of rare earth metals are recovered from electronic waste recycling in Switzerland. The start-up "REEcover" has developed a process that makes the recovery of raw materials easier, more economical and more sustainable.
