Ecorobotix is launching a series of algorithms currently under development for its ARA Ultra High Precision Sprayer, including an algorithm for use in potatoes. The algorithm is available free of charge while it’s being refined. This launch phase allows producers to test the company’s upcoming technological advances in new crops.

The Ecorobotix sprayer uses cameras and AI to distinguish crops from weeds and make targeted chemical applications. Supporting more than 25 crop algorithms and capable of recognizing over 40 weed species, the sprayer can help growers reduce inputs by up to 95%, according to the company.
