Trax - Autonomous Herbicide Sprayer
Trax autonomously identifies and spot-sprays weeds, reducing herbicide use and resistance. It holds three herbicides for accurate treatment, promoting sustainable agriculture. Trax’s camera detection and precise spraying minimise waste, saving farmers time and costs and reducing herbicide exposure. Trax provides data for informed pasture care, with refillable or pre-filled herbicide containers for convenience and sustainability.
