Robotec is a Ukranian company which develops different types of autonomous robots. The first of which, 'Agrotec', is used to automatically detect weeds by analyzing images received through its stereo camera through use of proprietary AI algorithms. After detecting these weeds, the robot then kills them using a focused microwave beam. The speed of the robot can be adjusted dependent upon the density of weeds detected so that weeds are not skipped. These images can also be used to determine if the crops themselves have been infected by some pathogen. They are also investigating the use of an ultrasonic Hydrogen Peroxide fog generator to eradicate fungi and viruses.
Have you initiated contacts or technological transfer agreements?The WIPO GREEN database is a free, solutions oriented, global innovation catalogue that connects needs for solving environmental or climate change problems with tangible solutions. The database consists of user uploads of needs and solutions, green technology patents from the WIPO Patentscope database, imports from select partner organizations, relevant knowledge material, and relevant expert profiles. Some of the unique features of the database are: Always-on AI-assisted auto-matching, user uploads tracing and alerts, full-text search for solutions based on long need descriptions, and the Patent2Solution search function for finding commercial applications of a patent. Free registration is required for uploading.
