Carbon Robotics

Carbon Robotics is a pioneering agricultural robotics company based in Seattle, Washington, which has established itself as a leader in innovative agricultural tools powered by artificial intelligence. Founded in 2018 by Paul Mikesell, the company has developed its flagship product, the LaserWeeder™, which utilizes state-of-the-art AI technology to significantly enhance efficiency in crop management. This high-precision laser weeding solution combines computer vision, AI deep learning technology, robotics, and lasers to effectively distinguish between crops and weeds, destroying weeds with high-powered lasers while minimizing the need for traditional herbicides.

The introduction of LaserWeeder™ has transformed weed control methods, allowing farmers to reduce costs by up to 80% while increasing crop yield and quality. By focusing on sustainable farming practices, Carbon Robotics not only improves the economic viability for farmers but also helps them meet the increasing demand for organic produce without the shortcomings typically associated with chemical weed control. The company emphasizes a strong commitment to improving productivity and safety in the agricultural sector, enhancing the quality of life for workers and consumers alike.
