T-Moov Poultry Robot

Small autonomous barn robot for cage-free layer, breeder and turkey houses — patrols the litter on 4-wheel drive, stimulating birds with lights, sounds and lasers to keep flocks moving, cut floor eggs and aerate litter. Developed by Breton startup Tibot (200+ Spoutnic/T-Moov units in 22 countries); Tibot's assets were acquired by fellow French poultry-robotics firm Octopus Biosafety in November 2022, which now manufactures and sells the T-Moov.

At a glance

Best for

Cage-free layer and breeder houses fighting floor eggs, and turkey barns needing flock activity and litter aeration without a person walking the house several times a day.

Avoid if

You need heavy litter tilling or disinfection — that is Octopus's larger XO robot; or you expect mapping/telemetry beyond the robot's simple autonomous patrol behaviour.

Not suitable for

Caged systems; dairy or arable applications; barns wanting egg collection (it deters floor laying, it does not pick eggs up).
