Working Student - Computer Vision (m/f/d)

Garching bei München, Germany

Solve complex robotics problems and help the first generation of autonomous farming robots to succeed.

Dahlia Robotics’ vision is to remove the need for herbicides in agriculture and make organic food production the standard. 

To achieve this, we build farming robots which autonomously take care of tedious tasks like weeding. Our robots automatically recognize crops and weeds on the field through computer vision and machine learning techniques and remove the weeds through mechanical tools.

We are a multidisciplinary team with backgrounds in computer science, electrical and mechanical engineering, geoecology and UX design, heavily supported by local farmers.
