Theme: Agentic Robotics & VLA Models for Smart Agriculture — From LLM-driven greenhouse inspection to end-to-end robotic manipulation.
LLM-driven robot navigation & autonomous greenhouse inspection
VLA models for natural language robotic manipulation
Plant detection: 90.8% | Efficiency: 85% | Effectivity: 93%
Hands‑on workshop merging Agentic Robotics (LLM-driven) and VLA models for sustainable agriculture. The robot autonomously inspects greenhouses, generates field reports, and acts via natural language.
14–16 July 2026 · ISGIS, Tunisia.
Organized by RESDA (Renewable Energy & Sustainable Development Association).
Day 3: Competition — Combine planner (LLM) + executor (VLA) into one end-to-end agentic system. Prizes & recognition.
