SwagBot autonomous agricultural robot to hit the farmers market in 2020

Back in 2016, we wrote about the Agerris SwagBot farming robot and its abilities in crop inspection, weed removal and yield counting. Now, having raised US$4.6 million for commercialization, the company is looking to get an AI version of the robot onto the market within a year.
Where the 2016 version was remote-controlled, the SwagBot can now work as an autonomous unit, with the capability to identify and eradicate weeds, while monitoring pastures and crops. It'll soon have the ability to autonomously herd cattle built in as well, so Spot the farm dog might find himself out of a job unless he can learn to monitor and wirelessly report on the herd.
Where SwagBot is designed to focus on large-scale crop and livestock operations, Agerris is also working on a second product called Digital Farmhand for smaller farms.
