Description

The Naïo OZ is the first robot developed by Naïo. This small LeFePo4 lithium battery powered electrically driven robot can be used as a farmhand and robot for many tasks such as seeding and planting, opening furrow ploughing and mechanical weeding. This small robot weighs just 160 kg. Autoguidance is RTK GNSS based following reference waypoints created in the field. OZ is sold with a 5-year warranty.

Drive train type

The robot is battery-powered and electrically driven.

Characteristics

The tool carrier in the back can lift up to 60 kg with the new front weight kit.

Navigation system

The OZ is guided by GNSS and RTK corrections via a cellular network provided from a local supplier. There are two ways to plan the paths. The first one is called ROBOT mapping, where the system guides the user through the menu to set points between A and B, and set the turning direction and the distance between the paths. With the second method, the robot uses a battery-powered GNSS receiver. It can be connected via Wi-Fi with a smartphone and user can lock the relevant positions in the field. This information can be shared with the dealer or the Naïo team to create a map. The map can be uploaded via USB to the robot or in the Naïo Companion App. Obstacles are detected with the pressure sensitive sensor in the front.
