AI robots tackle weeds without chemicals
A grassroots solution may be taking root in California, where a startup is developing weed-killing robots that could offer an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional chemical herbicides. The technology holds promise for protecting the environment and keeping harmful substances out of our food — but is it too good to be true? Peter O'Brien investigates.
How AI powered robots are helping small farms fight labor shortages
From labor shortages to environmental impacts, farmers are looking to AI to help revolutionize the agriculture industry. One California startup, Farm-ng, is tapping into the power of AI and robotics to perform a wide range of tasks, including seeding, weeding and harvesting.
In the hot California sun, without a trace of fatigue, small robots resembling garden carts with solar panels on the roof move through the cotton fields. This is "Element" - an autonomous agricultural robot created by the American startup Aigen. It works without fuel, without cables, without people. And most importantly - without the use of chemicals. In the face of growing problems with the lack of workers and the decreasing effectiveness of he…
