The coronavirus pandemic has accelerated the adoption of robotic and automation technologies in agriculture. Robotics company Root AI recently grossed $7.2 million in initial investment, bringing the company’s total investment to $9.5 million. The main product of the company is a product harvesting robot called Virgo, capable of harvesting red culmination such as tomatoes and berries, which must be harvested by hand to avoid damaging them. To date, Root AI has conducted tests in Virgo in California, Maine, New York, Ohio, Canada and the Netherlands. The company intends to have Virgo deploy in North America in the next 12 months and in Europe thereafter. Root AI is a component of a new wave of agricultural robots. Naio Technologies has approximately 150 robots flowing worldwide, adding Oz designed for market gardeners, Dino to deyerbar vegetables grown on mounds and Ted to weed vineyards.
