Carbon Robotics creates agricultural robot LaserWeeder, which recognizes weeds using computer vision and destroys them with a laser. The robot is mounted on a combine harvester and receives information from a camera system. The company has developed an artificial intelligence model - Large Plant Model (LPM), which allows farmers to identify and destroy new weeds without reprogramming/retraining robots. LPM was trained on over 150 million photos and data collected by the company's machines on more than 100 farms in 15 countries where the robots are currently operating. This model now forms the basis of Carbon AI, the artificial intelligence system that serves as the "brain" of the company's autonomous weed-killing robots. Carbon Robotics has also created its own autonomous tractor - LaserWeeder.
