Top SchoolJames Underwood is a co-founder and AgTech entrepreneur with 13 years of experience translating advanced perception systems for field robotics into real-world agricultural solutions. As founder of Green Atlas he focuses on precision orchard management that tracks the life-cycle of every fruit, while maintaining an honorary senior research fellowship at the Australian Centre for Field Robotics. He is an international expert in multimodal sensing, data fusion and mapping, having led large R&D programs across defence, mining and horticulture that produced publications, patents and deployed robotic platforms. James has managed multi-million dollar industry partnerships and teams, delivering measurable research outcomes for partners like BAE Systems and Rio Tinto. His academic grounding (BE and PhD in Mechatronics from the University of Sydney) underpins a rare combination of hands-on engineering, productisation and commercialisation. An interesting thread through his career is a consistent drive to make machines perceive messy biological environments as reliably as engineered ones.
