Autoweeder
About
An affordable, small weeding robot to help small farms run more efficiently
To feed the Earth’s growing population, food production needs to increase significantly in the coming decades. In order to keep food production sustainable, environmentally friendly, nutritious, and cost-effective, Autoweeder is a product that aims to encourage organic small-scale urban farming. The autonomous weeding robot is managed through an app and can navigate through the user’s vegetable garden, allotment, or small field by GPS. This results in increased soil health and a better opportunity for the crops to grow.
