Commercialisation & Modèle économique

  • Niveau de préparation technologique : 10: Introduction sur le marché - Pleine opération commerciale
  • Nombre d'unités en service : 11 - 50
  • Prix : 101K-200K
  • Modèle économique : Direct sales

Caractéristiques techniques

  • Type de solution : Mechanical weeder
  • Besoin principal du robot : The growing shortage of seasonal labor for manual weeding, combined with increasing restrictions on herbicide and rising demand for chemical-free food production. The Farming GT replaces both manual labor and broad herbicide application with precise, autonomous mechanical weed control.
  • Source d'énergie : Diesel electric (plug-in hybrid): 30 L tank lasts for ~30 h
  • Puissance : 10 HP
  • Taille : 456 x 300 x 200 cm | 14,96 x 9,84 x 6,56 inches
  • Poids net : 2000 kg
  • Débit de Chantier : Usually 3 ha / 24 h, max 12 ha / 24

Fonctionnalités et technologies

  • Fonctionnalité : The Farming GT autonomously navigates crop fields and performs precision mechanical weeding both between and within crop rows, distinguishing crops from weeds with over 99% accuracy using AI-powered multispectral cameras. It supports over 100 crop species, detects plants from the cotyledon stage (1 cm² leaf area) for selected crops, and operates in all lighting conditions including complete darkness. The robot features variable track width (1.38–2.25 m), four-wheel steering with only 3.5 m headland required, and processes fields at up to 2 km / h. An optional spot-spray module allows targeted herbicide application only where the hoe cannot reach, reducing chemical use by at least 85%.
  • Technologies embarquées : RTK-GNSS positioning via mobile network (NTRIP) for centimeter-level navigation and geofencing. Multispectral AI vision system: prism-based cameras capturing RGB and near-infrared simultaneously, with active LED lighting for day/night operation. LIDAR sensors for tool depth guidance along ground contours. Neural network inference on embedded NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin (200 TOPS, 8-core CPU, 32 GB RAM) — trained on 20+ million annotated multispectral images. Electric all-wheel drive with 4 independent traction motors (18 kW peak, 8,100 Nm torque). Diesel-electric hybrid power system (Hatz Stage-V range extender) for 24-hour autonomy. LTE and dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4 + 5 GHz) for remote monitoring and control via smartphone app. Collision detection bumper system and autonomous safety systems (rain sensor, geofence enforcement, emergency stop).
  • Outils : Different types of mechanical inter-row weeding tools, 6 types of in-row weeding tools (for different soils and row spacings)
  • Connexions : - not pulled by tractor, works for any field preparation (no need for GPS seeding / planting) - option to import field data from tractor to speed up the field setup (Shapefile in ZIP, KML, GeoJSON, ISOXML, TASKDATA.XML, CSV with WKT geometry, GPX, XLSX with WKT geometry, John Deere JDL and more upon request) - it requires a SIM card for connectivity and GPS correction data - no dedicated base station needed (but possible)

Phase de développement

  • Prochaine phase de développement : For the 2026 season: swarm operation enabling multiple Farming GT robots to work coordinated on the same field, weed-specific motion of arms and expansion to more crops and regions.
