- Additional Information
- - Manufactured in France (near Toulouse) using primarily European components and French-made electronic boards. - Compatible with standard farm implements via category 3-point hitch; partners with Stanhay (precision seeders), Treffler (tine harrows), KULT (mechanical weeders). - Camera-guided side-shift system for precise tool alignment even when crop rows aren't perfectly straight. - Operates without a supervisor using Augmented Autonomy technology. - Can generate maps during seeding or use RTK recording from a tractor; maps can be created afterward for weeding if seeding was done without GPS. - Designed for a full working day; recharges in just a few hours producing noticeable fuel and cost savings. - Naïo Technologies also produces OZ (vegetable/specialty crop), TED (straddler robot for vineyards), and JO (crawler for narrow vineyards and tree nurseries).
