I decided to present the evolution of the real-time flow-based dynamic scene understanding over the 40 years of robotics research in my talk. It is fun to find how the knowledge about the perception-action coupling improves over time making things more robust and more efficient. Speakers at ICRA@40 (23-26 September, 2024) https://lnkd.in/ewyMWRyH? The conference started when I was deciding my future path. #icra #robotics #perception
Nearly 80 distinguished speakers at #ICRA40! https://lnkd.in/eUxh338p Register by 29 August for early bird rates ?? https://lnkd.in/eKHGPBTz

The Christmas Bird Count starts December 14th! Do you know that it originated as an alternative to traditional Christmas hunting? Now, it is organized by National Audubon Society and involves hundreds of thousands of participants worldwide. This long-standing tradition is more than just counting birds, however; it’s a cornerstone of citizen science that drives bird conservation efforts. Here’s how you can join: ?? Find a local Christmas Bird Count circle and team up with experienced birders. ?? Use Cornell Lab of Ornithology's app eBird https://lnkd.in/gujnpx_V to complement your count by logging sightings before or after the official count, ensuring your data reaches a wider conservation network. ?? Record every bird species and individual you see -- even starlings count! How does this connect to what we do at Feather Friendly? Many species documented during the count are also impacted by glass collisions, one of the leading threats to birds. By participating in the count and making your property bird-friendly with our markers, you’re contributing both data and action to bird conservation. #conservation #featherfriendly #CBC #Audubon #CornellLabs #USFWS #christmastradition #birding #birds #winterbirds
Are you ready for the Christmas Bird Count? December 14th marks the first day of the National Audubon Society's annual Christmas Bird Count. Participating in citizen science is a great way to help the birds in your area. The impact of the bird count goes beyond just numbers. Christmas Bird Count data helps us better understand birds so we can better protect them! Check to see if there's a bird count event in your community: https://ow.ly/vPop50UnIAm Photo of a northern cardinal by Jim Hudgins/USFWS

There is one week left to take advantage of the early bird registration for the Shrimp Summit in Chennai, India, June 27-30. This will be a great opportunity to convene with industry experts and hear about the issues impacting the global shrimp industry. Of particular excitement to me will be the developments in improver programs given the fact that the vast majority of farmed shrimp production around the world is coming from small farmers. There will be some exciting examples of new traceability platforms being used to make shrimp supply chains more transparent while also helping the small farmers improve their production efficiencies.
?? LAST CHANCE! Only one week left to register for early bird rates. Registration prices increase 30 April. https://bit.ly/3JmxFQw

https://lnkd.in/g7CcEaAG Please see from 5:40 onwards. Selfish people like Diana Hallam, Dean Winter, and Eric Abetz who couldn't give a damn about other beings and only think of money. These short sighted people will support the NOT AT ALL Sustainable Timber Tasmania aka Forestry Tasmania, in the name of the 900 odd jobs here which could be transitioned to more ethical jobs, where not only could native animal populations be protected but help with climate change. One is a shadow minister for tourism who doesn't seem to realize the destruction of forests is harming tourism. Tourists aren't blind and are posting one star reviews which can 100% be attributed to poor forestry practices: "Lucas Local Guide·129 reviews·140 photos a month ago My recent trip to Tasmania has been overshadowed by an absolutely horrifying experience on your roads. I have traveled extensively across the globe, and I have never encountered such an appalling amount of roadkill as I did while driving through Tasmania. It was gut-wrenching to see over 50+ dead animals strewn across the roadsides. Every few kilometers, there were yet more lifeless animals – wallabies, possums, and other native wildlife – left to rot. The sight was not only heartbreaking but also completely unacceptable for a destination that prides itself on its natural beauty and wildlife. This isn’t just an eyesore; it’s a significant failure of wildlife management and road safety practices. How can Tasmania call itself a haven for nature lovers when its roads tell such a grim and disturbing story? Where is the effort to prevent this? Are there no measures like wildlife crossings, fencing, or driver awareness programs to mitigate this carnage? As a visitor, driving through your roads felt less like a journey through paradise and more like a harrowing experience in a wildlife graveyard. The Tasmanian Tourism Center and local authorities need to take immediate and substantial action to address this crisis. This is not just a tourism issue – it is an ethical one, and it reflects poorly on Tasmania’s reputation. Until this issue is resolved, I cannot recommend Tasmania as a travel destination to anyone who values wildlife and responsible tourism. Please, take this seriously and do better for your wildlife, your roads, and your visitors."

In 2024, Rare supported new community-managed protected areas in: ???? Brazil — In Pará state, Rare accelerated designation of two new marine management areas (a.k.a., Resex) spanning 185,329 acres along the Amazon Coast. We supported the federal government’s Instituto Chico Mendes De Conservacao Da Biodiversidade (ICMBio) to expand the Chocoaré-Mato Grosso Resex by 11,367 acres, ensuring conservation of nearly all the state’s mangroves. ???? Palau — Palau’s Melekeok state government placed an area of ocean under community-led management for the first time. Rare supported the designation process and has collaborated with local fishers to enable them to manage the newly protected area sustainably. ???? Honduras — the designation of the Trujillo Marine Site of Importance for Wildlife (604 miles) will protect 12 nautical miles from the city’s coast. Rare is working closely with ICF, the government agency responsible for managing protected areas, to propose legislation establishing exclusive artisanal fishing rights along Honduras’s Caribbean coast.

If you like to enjoy stories and photos of the natural world, I think you'd love my monthly newsletter! I recount stories each month of my work as a wildlife ecologist, as well including stories and photos from my life as a photographer and camera trapper. Each newsletter also tells the story behind my calendar photo of the month. You can sign up on the bottom of my website's homepage (www.awoodswalk.com) or at the bottom of my newsletters. https://lnkd.in/gFGrhUYy Here a snippet of the story behind October's calendar photo: Last Fall, I began working for a wildlife research lab based out the University of Minnesota - Duluth, studying bobcats and fishers, among other species. Our first trapping and collaring session began in the Superior National Forest, in northern Minnesota. The north woods of Minnesota are what one would consider to be a stereotypical boreal forest. The forest is comprised mainly of tamarack, white spruce, yellow and paper birches, aspen, and balsam fir. This mix of trees offers a fragrant aroma that I think is unmatched. Also characteristic is how flat this landscape is. Glaciers weighed heavy upon the earth here, and in their retreat, they left a landscape full of lakes, ponds, and wetlands. Minnesota is a very soggy place, in all the best ways…except the mosquitoes (the unofficial state bird)! Unlike in other regions of the country where elevation acts as a barrier to some species, here in Minnesota, all the critters are on the same playing field - so to speak. Martens and fishers are two species often associated with elevational partitioning. Martens, being smaller bodied yet with big old feet, simply have an easier time navigating high snowy places, compared to fishers. However, the two species coexist here... Check out the rest of the story in my newsletter!
