  • Follow-me aerial drone slave to terrestrial drone doing the work.
  • Landing pad on the above terrestial drone.
  • Multiple deck landing pad for 100% fly time with 1 hour charge time (one or unlimited batteries)
  • Auto charging - feet or other connection is made to landing pad for charging.
  • Aerial drones are equipped with rtk gps for precision agriculture - data collection, testing, fertilizing, IPM pod delivery, seeding, etc.
  • Control joystick with smartphone controls the route.
  • Advanced programming on desktop for mission control
  • Automatic seed dispensing for drones and terrestrial seed loading
  • Automated harvest delivery
  • Storage vessels have bulk, metering, single seed deposit/extraction.
  • Automated tool changer: implement pickup and dropoff is automatic
  • Iterative prototyping with non-automated infrastructure up to the point that architecture is worked out, then we go into the automation aspect
  • Follow-me capacity for unlimited swarms
  • Follow-me smart controls for side switching and other parameters for follow. Follow the master or follow the slave.
