This document discusses using a systems thinking and participatory design approach for service robotics. It addresses agriculture as a complex problem with many interrelated factors. A systems approach views a farm as nested subsystems from robots, crops, and harvest to the urban and farming environments. Participatory design engages users to understand needs and allows for adaptivity, customization and emergent behaviors as an autonomous system. The goal is to codesign robotic services that address challenges in sustainable, productive farming.

- 7. complex problem solving Elements in the system are almost fully autonomous. Each node contributes to providing the system’s infrastructure and maintaining the system. Thus, they require more engagement and responsibility from each node in the ne work but can result in exceptionally robust systems. adaptivityfunctions internal conditions PIC4SeR Relating System Thinking and Design Participatory Design for Service Robotics Authors: Fabrizio Valpreda, Marco Cataffo Relating System Thinking and Design Participatory Design for Service Robotics
- 8. adaptivity In complex adaptive systems, there is always a dynamic be- tween agents and structure, that is, between the elements in the system and he system itself. Understanding this dynamic and the trade-off between being able to control the system vs. harnessing the uncontrollable resources of the users is a key consideration. reconfiguration time autonomous customization PIC4SeR Relating System Thinking and Design Participatory Design for Service Robotics Authors: Fabrizio Valpreda, Marco Cataffo
