Gave a talk at CBKA on 28 April about our @EU_RoboRoyale project @durham_uni and our @SciRobotics paper. And, today, I got my first hands-on experience inside a real hive 🤩.Absolutely fascinating to see the bees up close! 🐝.

Today, we had our first group meeting of 2025 with some new faces! Our team @SwaCILab is growing rapidly, with many excellent research projects underway. Although a few members joined online, we still had to move the camera way back to fit everyone in the photo! 🤩🤖
