The Fendt Xaver system is a fleet of small autonomous robots that perform precision seeding using GPS and cloud connectivity. They work collaboratively and efficiently, reducing soil compaction and input costs.
The Fendt Xaver is an innovative swarm robotics system designed to revolutionize seeding and field operations. Comprising multiple small, autonomous robots, Xaver works collectively to sow seeds with high precision and efficiency—covering large areas faster than traditional methods while minimizing soil compaction and labor requirements.
Equipped with advanced sensors, GPS guidance, and intelligent swarm algorithms, Xaver robots communicate and coordinate their movements to optimize coverage and avoid obstacles. This modular approach allows farmers to scale operations easily and adapt to various crops and field conditions.
