Solar-powered robot zaps weeds without chemicals

简介：

In California, solar-powered, AI‑guided weeding robots are helping farmers control weeds more sustainably. The Aigen Element robot uses solar energy and advanced cameras to remove weeds without herbicides, cutting fuel costs and environmental impact. It’s already in use on crops like cotton, soy, and sugar beets, reducing labor needs and freeing workers for skilled tasks, Fox News has reported. The robots also collect data on crop health, helping farmers make better decisions while lowering their carbon footprint.
