Spearman

Spearman uses computer vision to precisely detect and eliminate weeds, electronically driven, it's built to be robust, durable, and easy to maintain in real field conditions

70%+ Reduction in manual weeding labor
How it works

Precision, tuned for the field, not the lab

Deep learning weed detection overlay showing identified weed locations in a field

Deep learning algorithms

Precisely identifies the centers of crops to improve weed removal coverage, works regardless of plant size or spacing, suitable for transplants and direct seeding alike

Modular hardware enclosure for the Spearman camera and control unit

Modular design

GPU, camera, lighting, and electric blade systems are all modular, plug and play components enable automatic recognition, reducing maintenance time and cost
