Our in-house technology

Global leaders in autonomy and high-fidelity data solutions

Proven technology from industry-leading experts

We've patented a novel method for a mobile robotic system to perceive and navigate in an environment using only features detected by onboard sensors. This is accomplished using a world model consisting of geocoded and semantically labeled features.


We also patented a novel method for collecting, labeling, and presenting the sensor data used to create these world models.

ROBOTICS TECHNOLOGIES


our autonomy stack empowers OEM partners to evolve into solutions providers for growers

Patented technology that navigates the world intuitively, like a human. Our solution uses on-board AI and feature-based navigation, eliminating the need for connectivity during a mission.

Instead of relying solely on GPS, Perceptive Navigation™ leverages advanced AI and on-board sensors to sense and interact with the environment, much like a skilled human operator. This groundbreaking approach eliminates the need for continuous GPS signal and empowers vehicles to operate autonomously with precision and adaptability.


How we excel over our competitors:

  • No GPS or RTK infrastructure
  • No antennas
  • No surveys
  • No fixed waypoints
  • No internet connection
  • No pre-routing

Features of  Perceptive Navigation™ technology:

  • Accuracy within 2 cm in GPS-deneid locations (under tree canopies, dense vineyards, hillsides, mountainous terrain, adjacent to building structures)
  • Vehicles use edge computation, not requiring internet connectivity
  • Feature-based perception adapts to changing growth and conditions
  • Avoids obstacles and reroutes dynamically to complete missions
  • Integration with Mission Control software
  • Adaptable for quick integration onto tractors, rovers, RTVs, drones, and implements

Implement Control: Perceptive Navigation™ will revolutionize traditional and smart implements, eliminating the need for GPS, and simplifying integration with mission planning and fleet management. Our Perceptive Implement API will provide needed adaptability, allowing smart implements to issue vehicle navigation commands.
