INNOVATION
Our AI-based solution provides chemical-free weed control for lawns in order to satisfy individuals who are looking for environmentally friendly solutions to weeding, and anticipating the expected legal ban on chemical weedkillers.
Our technology enables robotic weed detection with AI and mechanical removal on lawns in home gardens and public areas, in sports fields like soccer grounds or golf courses and in leisure facilities like hotels or resorts.
DIFFERENTIATORS
Our technology executes the robotic weeding of lawns using a simple mechanical solution, integrated single-board electronics, and a resource-efficient inferencing algorithm implemented on a low-cost processor. Our patented technology can be easily added to conventional robotic mower designs. The neural network is trained on our unique weed in lawn database.
Innovations in the robotic lawn mower market comprise the use of GPS, wireless setups, and cameras for recognizing obstacles to redirect the robot. Our technology uses a camera for imaging, adds AI detection and a mechanically controlled component to eliminate weeds on lawns in different growth phases and lighting conditions.
HOW IT WORKS
Our technology uses a three-step working process:
1. Continuously detects weeds using the front-facing camera in the course of mowing. When a weed is detected the mowing process temporarily stops to:
2. Drive the mower to place the weederabove the weed.
3. Mechanically remove the weed and resumes mowing process.
Weed is cut off by a mechanical trimmer above the ground, stopping photosynthesis of the weed. After a few such operations on the same weed, the root does not sprout again and rots in the soil.
