This book includes recent research on climbing and walking robots. CLAWAR 2022 is the twenty-fifth International Conference Series on Climbing and Walking Robots and Mobile Machine Support Technologies. The conference is organized by CLAWAR Association in collaboration with the University of the Azores, S. Miguel, Portugal, during September 12-14, 2022. CLAWAR 2022 provides an updated state of the art on robotics and its use in a diversity of applications and/or simulation scenarios, within the framework “Robotics in Natural Settings”. The topics covered include Bio-Inspired Robotics, Biped Locomotion, Educational Robotics, Human-Machine/Human-Robot Interaction, Innovative Actuators, Inspection, Legged Locomotion, Modeling and Simulation of CLAWAR, Outdoor and Field Robotics, Planning and Control, Wearable Devices and Assistive Robotics, and the Use of A.I. in Robotics. The intended readership includes participants of CLAWAR 2022 conference, international robotic researchers, scientists, and professors of related topics worldwide, and professors and students of postgraduate courses in Robotics and Automation, Control Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Mechatronics.

The editors draw on a 3-year project that analyzed a Portuguese area in detail, comparing this study with papers from other regions. Applications include the estimation of technical efficiency in agricultural grazing systems (dairy, beef and mixed) and specifically for dairy farms. The conclusions indicate that it is now necessary to help small dairy farms in order to make them more efficient. These results can be compared with the technical efficiency of a sample of Spanish dairy processing firms presented by Magdalena Kapelko and co-authors.
