How robots are being used to combat invasive species
Published on Oct 3, 2018
Quote:
Invasive species are all over the world, but Lionfish are a particularly thorny problem. To help combat their takeover, scientists are turning to aquatic robot helpers. Plus: Space junk surrounds the Earth, but something as simple as a space net could help clear up the previous space about us. And a burger-flipping robot that lost its job has found a new home with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Using artificial intelligence to save bees
Published on Jan 29, 2019
Quote:
A beekeeper teamed up with the Signal Processing Laboratory 5 and a group of EPFL students to develop an app that counts the number of Varroa mites in beehives.
This parasite is one of the two main threats – along with pesticides – to bees’ long-term survival. Knowing the extent of the mites’ infestation will allow beekeepers to protect their bees more effectively.

How Brazil’s first AI for Earth grantee plans to use AI to better conserve precious rivers
Published on May 23, 2019
Quote:
SOS Mata Atlantica “exists to protect one of the most endangered forests in the world: the Atlantic Forest and its associated ecosystems and people.” As Brazil’s first AI for Earth grantee, the organization plans to leverage Microsoft’s artificial intelligence technology to improve its clean water initiative. Nearly 3,500 volunteers currently monitor more than 250 rivers throughout the Atlantic Forest, which includes the vast majority of the country’s urban population and its biggest cities. Now, the NGO hopes to evolve from issuing annual reports to sharing more actionable insights – backed by strong data – that could impact public policy and save a precious resource from the ravages of pollution.
