More news of #robots doing good! These subsea gliders are being used to check ocean currents for signs of climate collapse. They can dive to depths of 1,000m gathering data, and are able to reach some previously inaccessible places!.

Today we throw back to exciting news, we won a Tech South West Award!. Some truly inspiring tech innovators won on the night and we were delighted to win the AgriTech award. Thank you @TechSWofficial . #TSWAwards #Agritech #TBT

We were proud to be included and are looking forward to their future filmings highlighting the companies who will be profiled in their upcoming UK Innovation Industries Intelligence Report 2024!.

Today we want to throwback to the brilliant short film from We Are Incandescent looking at AI, machine learning, autonomy and intelligent systems from a selection of UK companies. . #Agritech #TBT #Innovation.

Nice to see that our small robot Tom has made this list from @Siftedeu of their seven favourite “agreeable” robots. All of these bots are really quite charming to look at so Tom is in good company! .#Robotics #Robots.

Our Tomv4 robot is happy to work in any weather, including the sort of wet and boggy conditions we’re seeing this month!.Check out this video from our Instagram to see how Tom tackles very muddy terrain! .#Agritech #BritishFarming #SustainableFarming
