Earth Rover CLAWS autonomous robot demonstration event
Wednesday 23 July 2025 11.00 - 14.00
CLAWS™ (Concentrated Light Autonomous Weeding and Scouting) can identify individual plants in space and time, and collect real-time crop data, sending this information to its Farm Control System for grower decision making. Equipped with light weeders, this cutting-edge robot can also precisely target the meristem of even the smallest weeds with a short pulse of concentrated light, without harming the surrounding crop or soil, avoiding soil compaction and substantially adding to the weed control options for growers, minimising reliance on herbicides.
