Foresting Tomorrow #4 | A deep dive into the world’s first AI harvesting machine: the AORO

Foresting Tomorrow #4 | A deep dive into the world’s first AI harvesting machine: the AORO

Foresting Tomorrow is a weekly podcast hosted by Jens Isbak and Rasmus Pedersen. In episode #4, we continue our discussion on robots in forestry. This time, we talk about the AORO project: the world’s first AI harvesting machine. We discuss the progress of the project since it began in 2014, its current state, the technology used, and the safety concerns surrounding this exciting machine. We also cover an economic aid package of $145 million for small forest owners in the USA to support healthier forests, genetically engineered wood for enhanced carbon capture and resilience, and, last but not least, Stora Enso's amazing new wooden head office in Finland.
