Automating Insect Control
We develop small autonomous drones to keep crops insect free
We use bioinspiration to proactively control insect populations. Our drones automatically maintain balance in the delicate equilibrium of a greenhouse eco-system by selectively eliminating harmful insects. We understand the market’s needs and wishes to become more sustainable. The demand for biological and organic products increases while regulations on the use of insecticides become tighter. Our approach enables sustainable insect control with applications in all fields of horticulture. Moreover, we reduce your costs involved with insect control practices.
Insect monitoring and elimination are automated, which reduces the need for human intervention.
Less insecticides are required in the production process.
The number of plants infected by insect pest outbreaks is reduced.
Reducing the number of spraying rounds will result in crops having a higher market value.
Our system is installed in existing greenhouse infrastructures. It acts as an early warning system, continuously monitoring the environment for harmful insects. Inspired by bats hunting insects in flight, elimination is performed by micro-drones that chase the insects
Our system is patented and developed in collaboration with TU Delft. This gives us access to the latest developments in autonomous microdrones.
