The ability to autonomously collect Per Plant data and process it for insights at a field scale is unique. We are working with farmers and some of the world’s largest agricultural corporations to provide Per Plant Intelligence as a service.
Autonomously collect Per Plant data and process it for insights at a field scale. Build a detailed picture of crop health.
Per Plant monitoring system that is deployed during the development and production of crop varieties.
Know exactly when or how much a crop plants needs of their nutrient. Monitoring the impact of precision application.
Tom autonomously maps the entire field. Delivered to commercial specification, Tom is now entering service on UK farms.
Tom digitises the field, locating every single plant. Tom is a robust farming machine capable of spending hours in-field in all conditions. Unlike a tractor he is lightweight, significantly reducing soil compaction.
Wilma is a distributed operating system that uses AI and data analytics to deliver per plant intelligence to the whole farm. Wilma absorbs billions of data points from Tom and converts that to Per Plant Intelligence. This data is used to make decisions and if required, deploy robots for Per Plant Action.
Wilma allows farmers to pull together and aggregate multiple layers of farm data and farm management information.
Farmers can see exactly how many crop plants and weeds they have in their fields. Predict yields from emergence data, survival rates and tiller counts.
Distinguish between weeds with biodiverse properties and those that threaten yield. Wilma models conservative, recommended and aggressive action.
Wilma is a custom built, production ready software platform. We are now working with farmers and corporations to action the insights that we have been able to produce. This will reduce herbicide usage on farms and to to improve the timing of fertiliser applications and to spray or no spray decisions.
Tom will soon collect data from numerous sources. Soil health, biodiversity indicators and multiple sensors.
We have successfully achieved a proof-of-concept milestone for developing robotic soil health intelligence. Our Tom robot takes soil samples with PES Technologies’ soil health sensor mounted on the robot. The sensor detects Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) released from soil.
This could provide farmers with accurate, repeatable soil health monitoring at farm scale. Agronomists and farmers could use this information to guide precision improvements to soil health, maximising yield and increasing revenue with minimum chemical input.
