Budbreak builds robots that maps every plant and spots trouble early— mildew, mites, virus, nutrient stress—and shows it on a simple map, plant by plant. You get same-day lists so crews go only where it matters. Fewer surprises, cleaner fruit, steadier tons.

Functionalities and technologies

  • Functionality : Budbreak is a row-ready scout that turns vines into decisions. Press play and it begins to drives autonomously, spotting early disease symptoms (e.g. red blotch and powdery mildew), mite damage, and nutrient stress, while estimating yield from cluster/berry counts. Issues light up on a live per-vine map, with same-day reports so crews know exactly where to act. Next up: using those maps to drive targeted, closed-loop spraying.
  • Embedded technologies : Custom Strobe-Enhanced Imaging Array, high-speed stereo RGB-D vision, on-board edge AI for live disease/yield insights, real-time dashboard.
  • Tools : Weeding, seeding.
  • Connections :

Development phase

  • Next development phase : Per-vine digital twin maps: yield, vigor, and disease risk.
