2016-05-05 - The University of Guelph currently uses a J5 rover for soil sampling in precision agriculture applications. The University of North Carolina at Asheville is using a J5 rover to develop a simultaneous localization and mapping system for real-time navigation over dynamic terrain. Video cameras installed on the rovers identify objects and obstacles to navigate safely and autonomously. (Credit: ARGO Space/Robotics Division (SRD), 2016)
