CropHopper is a jumping robot that operates autonomously. Jumping up to 10 m per point, (for 10 m x 10 m grid boxes) it stops and takes 12 m² high- resolution images. In the future it will also be able to apply spot sprays and it has already killed weeds with a rotary hoe.

Swiss ecoRobotix selected Fira for the world premiere of its new Avo weed control robot. The previous robot, a much smaller one with a Delta arm and one nozzle, had too low a capacity and is now marketed as a scouting robot. The 2.04 m wide Avo detects weeds with RGB cameras and its own light source and sprays them with one or more of the 52 nozzles. The electric robot must be able to work 12 to 16 hours in a row. It will be tested in 2020 and 30 zero series models will follow in 2021 for around ¬ 80,000.
