Robot One

Pixelfarming Robotics · Netherlands

Solar-assisted laser weeding robot from Almkerk-based Pixelfarming Robotics — high-power laser modules burst weed cells at the two-leaf stage, chemical-free. Two frame sizes (3.20–3.60 m and 5.80–6.20 m working width) with 360°-rotating wheel units for configurable track widths; four 48 V hot-swappable batteries topped up by roof solar panels, optional diesel range extender for 24/7 work. Machines are working on farms in Europe and Canada; delivery 16–20 working weeks by production batch.

At a glance

Best for

Fine vegetable and specialty growers (spinach, onion, babyleaf, leek, chicory, herbs, tulips) wanting chemical-free, no-till-disturbance weed control with an open, retrainable crop-detection platform.

Avoid if

You need fully unattended operation — regulations require continuous human supervision — or a stable 4G/5G connection is not available on your fields; laser weeding is most effective at the two-leaf weed stage, so timing discipline matters.

Not suitable for

Broadacre cereals, vineyards, orchards; high weed pressure past early growth stages; farms without connectivity.
