Autonomous worm hunting robot for farmers

Autoblog

InsightTRAC created a tracked autonomous bot that locates and shoots down worm-infected almonds. Created to improve tree health and increase harvesting. After harvest, almonds that remain on trees are called mummies which can attract pests. The patent-pending rover is designed to seek mummies autonomously, and shoot them down using earth-friendly biodegradable pellets. The system is used for winter sanitation to prep for the budding season. InsightTRAC can operate 24/7 through an orchard identifying and tracking trees and can provide farmers with data to optimize their tree profitability. InsightTRAC is currently focusing on almond growers with plans to expand to other industries. Learn more at insighttrac.com
