Robotics Plus Showcases Prospr: Autonomous Hybrid Vehicle for Agriculture at FIRA USA

Robotics Plus, a New Zealand-based agritech company, is making waves in the agricultural industry with its innovative autonomous vehicle, Prospr. Designed to revolutionize orchard and vineyard operations, Prospr is already transforming the way growers work in the US, Australia, and New Zealand.

Prospr is a robust, autonomous, multi-use hybrid vehicle that is equipped to carry out a variety of tasks more efficiently and sustainably, reducing reliance on labor and increasing productivity. With its unique modular architecture and all-day running capability, Prospr empowers growers to adapt to the ever-evolving agricultural landscape, maximizing return on investment.

One of the key features of Prospr is its advanced AI-powered navigation system, which ensures safety, precision, and operational uptime in demanding orchard and vineyard environments. The vehicle’s collision avoidance system integrates LiDAR and cameras to detect and identify obstacles, allowing Prospr to autonomously adjust its speed, avoid obstacles, and maintain high operational speeds while ensuring safety.

Prospr’s intuitive user interface (UI) makes it easy for operators to manage and monitor tasks remotely, simplifying complex operations and maximizing the full potential of autonomous technology. Operators can track job status in real-time, maintain a detailed record of active and completed jobs, and set parameters for safe operations that protect people, crops, and the environment.

In addition to its navigation and user interface capabilities, Prospr also offers intelligent and targeted spraying options for growers. With tower sprayers for grapes, apples, and tree crops already available, Prospr enables growers to deploy a range of spray configurations that maximize efficacy and enable a more targeted application than traditional sprayers.

Attendees at FIRA USA 2024 can experience Prospr firsthand at the Robotics Plus exhibition stand and learn how the vehicle optimizes orchard and vineyard tasks like spraying. With distributors in Washington State, USA, and Australia and New Zealand, Prospr is already making a significant impact on the agricultural sector.
