What We Do
Carbon Robotics builds the industry-leading AI-powered LaserWeeder™ which combines computer vision, AI deep learning technology, robotics, and lasers to identify crops versus weeds - and shoots the weeds with lasers.
More than 100 of the world’s largest specialty crop growers have deployed LaserWeeders™ in North America, Europe, and Australia. This no-touch, precision technology is effective day and night in over 100 crops in both organic and conventional farming.
LaserWeeders™ are designed at Carbon Robotics headquarters in Seattle, Washington and manufactured in our state of the art new manufacturing facility in Richland, Washington. Carbon Robotics has raised $157 million in capital since 2018 from investors that include BOND, NVentures (NVIDIA’s venture capital arm), Anthos Capital, Fuse Venture Capital, Ignition Partners, Revolution, Sozo Ventures, and Voyager Capital.
