Fieldwork Robotics’ Post

Excellent news! We’ve made it on the map of the Top 100 Global Innovators selected by SVG Ventures | THRIVE.   As semi-finalists, we will be presenting live at the THRIVE Global Impact Summit in November.   Good luck to all the innovative start-ups involved; we look forward to meeting you at the event! 

Fieldwork Robotics is pleased to reveal its newest autonomous harvesting model, the Fieldworker 1. The model has enhanced AI features that enable a more accurate detection of berry ripeness and heightened picking speed, providing growers with an effective harvesting solution that allows them to better manage their operating costs. Fieldwork has also established a collaboration with Costa Group, Australia’s leading producer of fresh fruit and vegetables. The agreement will see Fieldwork’s robots deployed for trials at Costa farms in Australia over the next 12 months and demonstrates continued interest from international customers operating in the company’s target markets. Commenting on the news, David Fulton, Fieldwork Robotics CEO said: “The progress we have made over the last 18 months has been extraordinary. Partnerships with industry-leading companies like Costa Group are a testament to the hard work of our team, the quality of our product, and the effectiveness of our solution which solves a real-world problem for growers.” Thanks to The Guardian for breaking the story. #AgriRobotics #Reveal #Harvesting 🔗https://lnkd.in/g-zz7sBg
