We chat with Ben Scott-Robinson about the future of farming & Agriculture, the farming industry needs to change to keep up with the demand for more food, but not only that, it also needs to change to become less wasteful and more precise, whilst also becoming more environmentally friendly. This is where Ben's company comes in, the Small Robot Company specialises in using AI and Robotics to achieve per plant farming. A really interesting chat about an incredibly important industry that is set to change, new careers in the industry have already started to pop up thanks to companies like Ben's, whether that be in engineering, AI, Robotics, Marketing etc.  

We often hear about robots working in controlled, predictable environments, like an assembly line or an operating theatre, but as a former field biologist, Claire is most interested in what happens when we take robots outside into wild environments, where everything — from the elements to the local wildlife — seems to be against you. In this special live recording for the UK Festival of Robotics, Claire chatted to Sophie Armanini (TU Munich / Imperial College London), Ben Scott-Robinson (Small Robot Company) and Matthew Ryan Tucker (University of Bristol). Find out more about the UK Festival of Robotics here: https://www.ukras.org/robotics-festival/ Dr Sophie Armanini is an assistant professor at the Technical University of Munich, Germany, and a guest researcher at Imperial College London, where she previously worked as a research associate. She obtained her PhD from Delft University of Technology (the Netherlands), and has been a visiting researcher at Cranfield University and Cornell University (USA). Sophie's research focuses on the dynamics and control of unconventional and bioinspired aerial vehicles, including flapping-wing and aerial-aquatic robots. Ben Scott-Robinson is an accomplished digital entrepreneur focused on geospatial and mobility technologies. Ben co-founded the Small Robot Company in 2017 which endeavours to replace tractors with accurate, smart, lightweight robots. With 20 years experience in digital innovation, including the digital transformation of Ordnance Survey, Ben is also an experienced technology entrepreneur having founded two agencies, two consultancies, an app start-up and a phone for the blind. Matthew Ryan Tucker is a Physics PhD Student at the University of Bristol, researching the use of ground based mobile robots for mapping radiation and finding radiation hotspots. Last year he was part of a University field trip to the Chernobyl Exclusion zone, where he deployed a Boston Dynamics Spot robot in a variety of different locations, including beneath the New Safe Confinement at the Chernobyl Power plant.

In this extract from the National Trust Theatre at BBC Countryfile Live 2019 we join Charlotte Smith in conversation with Ben Scott-Robinson, Co-Founder of Small Robot Company; Will Evans, host of the ‘Rock and Roll farming’ podcast; David Ferguson, Chair of Beeswax Dyson Farming; Kit Franklin form Hands Free Hectare and Prof. Alistair Driver, director of Rewilding Britain. In this extract they discuss the dangers of bad soil health, the benefits of rewilding and the introduction of robot farming.

Ben Scott-Robinson is designing the next generation of robot relations. Small Robot Company, the start-up he co-founded, must solve both the technical challenge of deploying rugged, autonomous robots on farms and the nuanced complexities of serving multiple users - from individual farmers to the animals the machines may encounter in the field. Ben talks to MEX founder Marek Pawlowski about how his deep experience in user-centred design, across both agencies and in-house teams, prepared him for the role and the origins and inspiration of Small Robot Company. The conversation expands to explore the user research and human robot interaction programmes Ben is working on.

The third in a series of podcasts focused on food tech, this episode meets four disruptive start-ups transforming the food and drink industry. Joining host Stefan Gates are Bernie Williams, CEO of myDNAhealth, Domini Hogg, Founder, Tried and Supplied, Ben Scott-Robinson, Co-Founder, Small Robot Company, and Barney Wragg, CEO, Karakuri. First up Dominic Oughton, Industrial Associate & Open Innovation Forum Lead, Institute for Manufacturing, University of Cambridge speaks about what he is looking for from start-ups taking part in their Food Tech Matters pitch session.

This episode focusses on the environmental problems caused by agriculture and I speak with the co-founder of a The Small Robot Company who aim to tackle many of those problems by approaching farming in a completely different way. We speak about the environmental problems caused by past and current intensive agricultural practices, how the small robots work and why that is positive for the environment, integration with internet of things technology, what to do with new spared land/ obsolete farm buildings and how they plan on stopping them getting stolen.

Ben Scott-Robinson is an advertising refugee. He has held big creative director jobs at big agencies, been brand side and is now aiming to revolutionise food production. Obvs. We talk about how autonomous robot tech is at maturity but the way we interact with the robots is in its infancy. Barking at Alexa to put on an egg timer isn't a poor start to human-robot symbiosis. If you'd like to meet the man Ben is running a creative hack session at the Small Robot Company on the 22nd/23rd of March.
