Name
Australian Automation and Robotics Precinct
Description
The Australian Automation and Robotics Precinct (AARP), just 25 mins north of the Perth CBD - is Australia’s largest test, development, demonstration and training ground for emerging automation and robotics, remote operations and zero emissions technology. Operating on behalf of DevelopmentWA, CORE Innovation Hub is establishing the AARP as a world-class facility that is dynamic, collaborative, accessible and global.
The 51-hectare site, which has been made available by DevelopmentWA and being activated and operated by CORE Innovation Hub, includes multiple test beds that can accommodate a range of vehicles, equipment, field robots, drones and other technologies. The test areas are being developed to provide a Dirt Lab - Innovation Mine with drill pad, haul ramp, and load and unload areas as well as New Energy, Heavy Haul, Urban and Flex Zones for drones and collaborative projects. As the Precinct continues to develop, we will be fostering a vibrant innovation ecosystem around robotics and automation.
Construction has started, for early 2024, on the Precinct HQ (or common user facility) which will be a commercial and collaborative space equipped with co-working space, meeting rooms and offices, a control room and training facilities, lab and maker space and exhibition areas.
The AARP caters to startups, small and medium-sized businesses, mi-tier miners and Tier 1 operators - across sectors including mining, resources and energy, construction, agriculture, manufacturing, defence and space. The Precinct is currently being utilised by a number of both small and large companies.
