SwarmBot at Australia

SwarmFarm Robotics' SwarmBot is a lightweight autonomous agricultural robot designed to operate in fleets for spraying, spreading, mowing, and seeding on commercial farms. The robots use GPS navigation with 2 cm accuracy, computer vision-based weed detection, and support standard agricultural interfaces including PTO, hydraulics, CAN bus, and ISOBUS. The Queensland, Australia-based company, founded in 2015, has deployed over 250 robots operating across more than 10 million acres.
