Keep the human. Remove the burden.
Our Taro Cobot works alongside farmers
instead of trying to replace them.
The robot handles movement, positioning, carrying and repetitive field operations so the farmer can spend their energy on the parts of the job that require judgement, dexterity and experience.
The Taro Cobot is able to
Weed
Cultivate beds faster while the robot handles movement through the row.
Transplant
Move down the bed at a consistent pace with plants, tools and equipment within reach.
Harvest
Bring the platform and harvest containers with the worker instead of repeatedly walking material out of the field.
Haul
Move up to 300 lb through the farm without carrying it by hand
Autonomy that grows with the farm
Most agricultural automation makes farmers adapt their operation to the machine.
Taro Cobot learns to work inside the operation they already have.
01 - Work With Me
The farmer provides judgement and dexterity. Taro Cobot handles movement and physical support.
02 - Learn From Me
Human guided autonomy. The robot learns from how farmers work in the field.
03 - Work For Me
The robot completes learned tasks from start to finish with minimal supervision.
