Overview
Burros are people-scale collaborative robots designed to help people work more productively today, while building the base for more automation where it is needed most.
Burros use computer vision, high precision GPS, and AI to follow people and navigate autonomously from A to B while carrying various payloads.
Burros feature a novel and patent-pending approach called Pop Up Autonomy™ – with Pop Up Autonomy™ Burros work immediately out of the box, everyone becomes an operator, and there is no need for a means of commanding everything centrally or installing infrastructure.

Barcode
Scan Package
We offer a barcode scanning system for Burro. With this system, you can get real-time data on employee harvesting productivity. All of this data is also localized to the area from which produce was harvested, enabling primitive yield mapping. The package includes:
- A scanner on each robot
- Access to an API whereby that data can be fed into various systems in real time
Crop Camera Package
Burros can be ordered with a global shutter crop camera and mount. This option is necessary to yield crop scouting data such as cluster counts.
Nursery & Towing Package
Burros can be ordered with a towing package – this includes:
- Central control (maps trained on a single robot, that can be shared to other units on site, and selected to run via an online interface), plus autonomy that considers the size of the trailer for path planning – we charge a recurring fee for this added software
- Larger LFP batteries for added range
- Hitches

Expansion & Tool Development
Our Burros are sold commercially to help growers in specialty crops—table grapes, blueberries, caneberries, and nurseries— who want their crews to be able to do more with less. This modular, people-scale platform currently offers expansive autonomy for in-field transportation, towing, spot-spraying, UV-treatments, and crop scouting, with future potential for high-dexterity tasks including pricking and pruning. Visit our technology page to see our progression towards a fully autonomous tomorrow.
We sell/rent robots, and work collaboratively with research groups and companies to further develop autonomy and capabilities for Burro. If you’re interested in participating, please get in touch!
