    Abstract: Tools in an automatic milking arrangement are picked up by using a robotic arm (110). The robotic arm (110) moves a camera (130) to an origin location (PC) from which the camera (130) registers three-dimensional image data (Dimg3D) of at least one tool (141, 142, 143, 144). The three-dimensional image data is processed using an image-based object identification algorithm to identify objects in the form of the tools and hoses (152). In response to identifying at least one tool, a respective tool position (PT1, PT3, PT4) is determined for each identified tool based on the origin location (PC) and the three-dimensional image data. Then, a grip device (115) is exclusively controlled to the one or more of the respective tool positions (PT1, PT3, PT4) to perform a pick-up operation. Thus, futile attempts to pick-up non-existing or blocked tools can be avoided.

    Abstract: The invention concerns an insect-breeding facility comprising a climatic zone (Z1, Z2) for storing the insects. The facility comprises an air-conditioning zone (Z4) comprising an air-conditioning system, for bringing air to a first temperature, and simultaneously for bringing air to a second temperature (T2). A first set of pipes (C1) is configured to transport the air at the first temperature from the air-conditioning zone (Z4) to the climatic zone (Z1, Z2) and to deliver it there, a second set of pipes (C2) is configured to transport the air at the second temperature from the air-conditioning zone (Z4) to the climatic zone (Z1, Z2) and to deliver it there. The facility also comprises a device for extracting air from the climatic zone (Z1, Z2). The invention also concerns a corresponding method for air conditioning in a climatic zone (Z1, Z2) of an insect-breeding facility.
