Problem
Arable farming faces challenges in reliability and sustainability, often requiring intensive labor and resulting in inconsistent yields. Traditional farming methods can also lead to soil compaction and environmental concerns due to the weight and operational practices of heavy machinery.
Solution
Agrointelli offers ROBOTTI, an autonomous agricultural tool carrier designed to automate various field operations. This self-driving platform combines robotics with robust components, providing a cost-effective and easily integrated solution for modern farming practices. ROBOTTI utilizes RTK-GNSS positioning for precise operation, achieving 1-2cm accuracy, and can operate 24/7 without a driver. Its lightweight design minimizes ground pressure, promoting healthier soil conditions compared to conventional tractors.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes farmers and agricultural businesses seeking to automate field operations, improve precision, and enhance the sustainability of their farming practices.
Features
- Autonomous navigation using RTK-GNSS (GPS) for 1-2cm accuracy
- 3-point linkage and power take off (PTO) for universal compatibility with various implements
- Kubota diesel engines for reliable power and easy maintenance
- Multiple redundant safety systems for safe operation in the field
- Lightweight design (approximately 3,000 kg) to reduce soil compaction
- Remote monitoring and control capabilities
- Compatibility with a wide range of crops, including sugar beets, basil, onions, and cabbage
- Software for task planning, execution, and data logging
