¶ Sabanto autonomous tractor upgrade
Description: Sabanto is an agricultural technology company that retrofits conventional tractors with autonomous hardware and software to automate field operations. Founded in 2018, it focuses on making farming more efficient, sustainable, and profitable by enabling 24/7 autonomous labour for tasks like tilling, planting, and mowing, reducing reliance on manual labour.
Key Aspects of Sabanto Technology:
Retrofit System: Instead of building new robots, Sabanto installs its proprietary kit—featuring cameras, GPS, and sensors—onto existing, standard tractors, making it a cost-effective solution.
Vehicle Mission Control (vMC): A software platform allows users to plan, monitor, and manage autonomous missions from any device in real-time.
Safety and Efficiency: The systems feature robust object detection to identify obstacles, ensuring safe operation without a driver in the cab.
Application: The company has deployed its technology across thousands of acres, particularly in the U.S. Midwest, for various row crop tasks
