Roboton Farmer is a modular autonomous field robot from Roboton / TERMS a.s. (Czech Republic). The official English a platform that autonomously navigates, changes tools, and automates soil preparation, sowing, irrigation, and weeding. FAQ: Roboton is an autonomous UGV developed by TERMS a.s.; the same core (navigation, charging, control) is used in agriculture, logistics, and defense, with tools swapped by sector. The official footer identifies TERMS a.s. (ID 144 99 037, tax ID CZ 144 99 037, DUNS 360567775), incorporated in the Commercial Register at the Regional Court in České Budějovice from 1 January 2002, file B.1236.
FAQ repeats the up-to-70% water-saving claim versus conventional irrigation “based on deployments so far,” and says the robot recharges itself, refills water, swaps tools, and resumes work. A digital control panel is described for managing robots, fields, and growing plans, including yield estimates and a crop knowledge base. Farmer Mark Řeřicha is quoted about shoveling accuracy versus a tractor.
Czech company Roboton; fully electric autonomous row-crop robot for soil preparation, precision seeding, weeding, and targeted irrigation. Operations are GPS-guided or vision-based. Standardized 3-point hitch and smart connector; can select and switch implements from the crop plan with minimal supervision. Optional UR robotic arm for carried tools (localised watering or weeding). Validated trailed implements named: cultivator blades, rotavator, wide-row seeders; more types under testing. Solar panels for long hours; automated charging and watering stations; autonomous dock to refill water or recharge on a grid-connected station for multi-day unattended operation. Modular chassis (powertrain, navigation, energy, implements serviced independently). Manual operation via controller, mobile app, or web dashboard. Fully electric dual-track drivetrain; two independent rubber tracks. Hybrid navigation: dual RTK-GNSS for centimetre-level precision plus machine vision and LIDAR obstacle detection. Visual-odometry / AI fallback when GNSS is weak is described as undergoing testing. Piloted on two farms in the Czech Republic. Broader availability expected in 2026 for sale and as lease or service agreements. Initial focus Central Europe; CMO Michaela Slavíček quoted.
Electrically driven tracked UGV. Dual-antenna RTK that “recalculates its position ten times per second” and “enables accuracy of up to 1 cm.” Soil-prep rotary implement 190 cm wide, depth from the surface down to 13 cm, with automatic speed adjustment (manufacturer claim). Sowing attachment 1–11 planting units; vacuum metering; optical seed-presence check; TERMS sowing-success claim up to 99.5%. Irrigation: 1,200-liter tank, up to 11 independently controlled gravity-fed outlets; water-saving claim up to 70% from deployments. Weeding: camera at 30 fps; 1–11 blades; TERMS recognition claim up to 98% and blade response 0.2 seconds. Four solar panels with a demonstrated angle-change mechanism; notes TERMS has not published battery capacity, panel output, charging time, typical endurance, dimensions, weight, operating speed, or hectares per day. Tested in the Czech Republic and abroad, including vegetable work at Farma Rožnov.
