Cognitive Pilot’s Robot Tractor Wins Prestigious International Award
The machine can handle a wide range of tasks.
Russian company Cognitive Pilot has been named one of the winners of the AgTech Breakthrough Awards, one of the most prestigious awards in agricultural technology. The company won the Agricultural Robotics Innovation of the Year category.
The Russian developers earned the award for a compact autonomous robot tractor. It can do more than plow fields and sow crops. The machine scans soil composition and identifies areas that need fertilizer.
“Essentially, it is a robotic agronomist. In livestock farming, it can replace several workers, adjusting feed for animals around the clock. Together, the systems we have developed in this area create a seamlessly automated farm,” said Olga Uskova, CEO of Cognitive Pilot.
Another feature of the robot is its use of computer vision for navigation, allowing it to carry out assigned tasks without a satellite signal.
