Northstar Robotics
Open hardware and software platform for self driving tractors. turns existing farm equipment into customized, autonomous solutions for fields through retrofit kits.
This technology makes more efficient use of farm inputs and labor to improve crop productivity. Northstar Robotics offers autonomous technologies for a wide range of applications. Through its open hardware and software platform, Northstar Robotics turns existing farm equipment into customized, autonomous field solutions through retrofit kits. These kits can be retrofitted to most equipment since many tractor models use the same steering, acceleration and control systems. An intelligent control system is connected to a cloud robotics platform. This allows farmers to dictate assignments such as feeding, harvesting, seeding and weeding from a mobile phone app. GPS technology is used to ensure accuracy.
