Robot dogs have been put to the test herding sheep at the Ekka Royal Queensland Show, demonstrating the latest in agricultural technology.
Robotic herders in action
The robotic canines, equipped with sensors and artificial intelligence, navigated the livestock with precision, responding to commands and adapting to the sheep's movements.
This trial highlights the potential for automation to assist farmers in managing livestock, reducing the physical demands of traditional herding.
