Traditional optimization of off-highway applications relies on rule-based systems and manual interventions. However, these systems reach their limits when it comes to unpredictable conditions like terrain changes, weather fluctuations, or the complex coordination of multiple vehicles.
Optimizing off-highway vehicles requires intelligent automation based on real-time vehicle and sensor data. Agentic AI enables machines to autonomously respond to changing conditions, make processes more efficient, and meet regulatory requirements.
Develop a prototype/concept that utilizes Agentic AI to more intelligently control and optimize off-highway vehicles. The focus is on the following areas:
The best ideas will be presented on April 3rd on the Industrial Startup Stage in Hall 2.
