Tailored Solutions for Agriculture Applications
Mach’s technology stack—including Mach Command, Mach Nexus, Mach Perception, Mach Ops, and RadX Phased Array Radar—provides comprehensive solutions across diverse agricultural applications:
- Mach transforms harvesting logistics through fully autonomous crop haulage machinery.
- Our technology autonomously pairs multiple machines with harvesters for loading, dynamically dispatching vehicles without manual intervention.
- Real-time fleet management via an intuitive tablet-based interface ensures seamless coordination of equipment movements—minimizing downtime and maximizing harvest efficiency.
- Mach partnered with GUSS Automation to revolutionize precision spraying in orchards and vineyards, addressing challenges like labor shortages, tight operating spaces, and unreliable GNSS signals beneath dense canopies.
- Leveraging advanced Lidar-based navigation, intuitive mapping interfaces, and seamless vehicle integration, Mach enabled GUSS’s autonomous sprayers to navigate challenging orchard environments without GNSS dependency.
- With hundreds of autonomous sprayers deployed across more than 2 million acres, growers have achieved increased yield and crop quality, reduced chemical usage and operational costs by up to 35%, and enhanced sustainability through targeted spraying practices.
- Mach’s autonomous solutions extend to livestock management, automating feeding processes in dairies and feed yards. Using Mach Perception’s advanced stereo vision and radar, our systems enable autonomous feed delivery vehicles to navigate barn or yard environments, detect obstacles like animals or equipment, and distribute precise amounts of feed based on real-time data from Mach Ops.
- For dairies, this ensures consistent feeding schedules that improve milk production, while in feed yards, it optimizes feed distribution to enhance cattle growth rates.
- This reduces labor demands and minimizes feed waste, addressing the high labor costs and inefficiencies often faced in livestock operations.
- For row crops like corn, soybeans, and wheat, Mach enables autonomous tractors and implements to perform precision planting, spraying, and harvesting.
- Mach Command ensures centimeter-level accuracy in planting patterns, while Mach Perception’s sensor fusion (combining stereo vision, radar, and Lidar) allows for real-time obstacle detection and row-following in challenging field conditions.
- Mach Ops provides fleet coordination, enabling multiple machines to work together seamlessly, reducing overlap and improving efficiency.
- This results in higher yields and lower input costs, addressing the labor shortages and resource constraints common in large-scale row crop farming.
- Mach’s technology supports specialty crop growers, such as those producing tomatoes, lettuce, and other high-value crops, by enabling autonomous harvesting and weeding.
- Mach Perception uses advanced computer vision to identify ripe produce—like tomatoes or lettuce heads—and guide robotic arms for gentle, precise picking, minimizing damage to delicate crops. For weeding, RadX Phased Array Radar penetrates dense foliage to detect weeds, enabling targeted removal without chemicals.
- This reduces labor needs and supports sustainable practices, critical for specialty crop markets facing high labor costs and consumer demand for organic produce.
- Mach enhances precision agriculture with implement automation for rate and section control, optimizing the application of seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides.
- Mach Command integrates with smart implements to adjust application rates in real-time based on soil conditions, detected via Mach Perception’s sensors.
- Section control ensures inputs are applied only where needed, reducing waste and environmental impact.
- For example, in variable-rate seeding, Mach’s technology adjusts seed density based on soil fertility maps, improving yields while conserving resources—a key benefit for farmers aiming to balance productivity with sustainability.
- Mach’s technology can be adapted for vertical farming and indoor agriculture, where precision and automation are critical.
- Mach Perception’s sensors monitor environmental factors like light, humidity, and nutrient levels, enabling autonomous systems to adjust conditions for optimal plant growth.
- Mach Command powers robotic arms for planting, tending, and harvesting in stacked systems, while Mach Nexus ensures seamless machine-to-machine communication in controlled environments.
- This is ideal for urban farms growing leafy greens, herbs, or microgreens, where labor costs are high and space is limited.
- For agroforestry systems and perennial crops like coffee, cocoa, or nut trees, Mach offers autonomous solutions for monitoring, maintenance, and harvesting.
- Mach Perception’s sensors, including RadX radar, penetrate dense canopies to assess tree health, detect pests, or identify ripe fruit.
- Autonomous vehicles equipped with Mach Command can navigate uneven terrain, performing tasks like pruning or targeted spraying.
- Mach Ops enables long-term data collection to optimize intercropping strategies, supporting biodiversity and sustainability in agroforestry systems.
- Mach’s RadX radar technology provides unparalleled visibility in challenging conditions. Unlike traditional sensors limited by dust, fog, or vegetation cover, RadX penetrates environmental obstacles to deliver accurate crop mass measurements, header height control, yield estimations, and vine cordon detection.
- This ensures optimal harvesting performance even in adverse conditions, enhancing the precision of automated implements across all agricultural applications.
