Smart Seeder
Add to EJ Playlist An unmanned tractor and seeding machine developed by engineers at UNSW will improve agricultural productivity for broad acre farmers and enable cropping on upwards of 20 per cent more land. The Smart Seeder, developed by Associate Professor Jay Katupitiya from UNSW's School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering in partnership with the Grains Research Development Corporation (GRDC) uses advanced control systems and sensors to plant seeds and perform other tasks with a degree of accuracy previously not found in autonomous systems. The research team behind the invention were finalists for the 2012 Eureka Prize for Innovative Use of Technology. They are now working with the GRDC to pursue further development and commercial production. |

From Tigger's to Milford House, with love
Add to EJ Playlist In 2008 a remarkable relationship was kindled between the children of Tigger's Honeypot, one of UNSW's child care centres, and the residents of Milford House, an aged care facility in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. Once a fortnight the children pay a visit to their older friends, to paint, sculpt, sing, laugh and share stories. This video looks at the benefits of bringing together the very young and the very old, and how better planning of our built environment could make for a happier, more healthy living environment for all.
