This autonomous agricultural robot is designed to to work in a research field at a major university. We built two of them for them and they are quite impressive.
They can be operated with a programmed route, or be controlled via 'point and click'. The latter has the operator choose waypoints on a map, and the robot navigates to it while avoiding obstacles.
An end-to-end demonstration of using Geosurvey Collect and Geosurvey to diagnose plant illnesses and send remote recommendations in real-time.
