The BADGER project exhibited the underground robotic system at the ERF 2020, which was held on 3-5 March, 2020, in Malaga, Spain. The BADGER booth at the ERF 2020 exhibition space drew the attention of visitors, showcasing the real underground robot H/W, as well as videos from the underground robot operational tests that had been performed by that time.

The field trials of the BADGER project are taking place during the first months of 2020, in the Scientific Park in Leganes, Madrid. The trials are being led by UC3M and are performed with close collaboration from the further project partners. The underground robotic system is being extensively tested here under new climate and soil conditions.
Following the field tests of the BADGER underground robot in Lennenstadt, the robotic system has been transferred to Madrid within December 2019, to continue with the next step of the project field trials.
The Consortium of the BADGER project met in Athens, Greece, on 12 December 2019, at the premises of Singular Logic (SILO). The primary purpose of the meeting was to discuss on a series of technical aspects of the integration of the BADGER robot, as well as to define the plan for the upcoming project tests.
The BADGER underground robotic system is being tested within October 2019 in the project’s field trials that are taking place in Lennenstadt, in the Sauerland in southeast North Rhine-Westphalia. In these field trials, which take place, the BADGER robot operation is being extensively tested, in conditions that often involve a series of challenges, such as particularly wet soil.
BADGER organizes a workshop at the IEEE Smart World Congress 2019 (IEEE SWC 2019) , held in De Montfort University, Leicester, UK, on 19-23 August 2019.
The Autonomous Machines World is back for its 3rd year – Europe’s first platform bringing together all stakeholders who play an active role in the deep learning, computer vision, sensor fusion, perception and cognitive machines scene.
A technical integration meeting of the BADGER project took place in June 2019, in the premises of the project Coordinator, UC3M, in Leganes, Madrid, Spain. The BADGER underground robotic system is being prepared in view of the upcoming field trials of the project.
BADGER is going to participate in this year’s bauma trade fair, which will be held in Munich, Germany on April 8-14. Bauma (International Trade Fair for construction machinery, building material machines, mining machines, construction vehicles and construction equipment) is the world's largest trade fair in the construction industry
The Consortium of the BADGER project met in Pisa, Italy, on 4-5 April 2019, at the premises of IDS GeoRadar. The primary purpose of the meeting was to bring partners together so as to discuss on a series of technical aspects of the development and integration of the BADGER robot, which is currently in progress.
