About

About TREKTOR

TREKTOR is an agricultural robot with configurable track width and height, allowing its chassis to fit different crop arrangements. Navigation, localisation, perception and maintenance sensors support the vehicle's movement and supervision, while farmers attach and set up their existing implements for the chosen operation.

Its drivetrain separates electric traction from energy replenishment: an onboard diesel generator recharges the electrical system while the robot works. SITIA rates the arrangement for up to 24 hours of operation. This gives the platform a common propulsion and sensing base for repeated work across crops, with the attached implement determining the cultivation process performed.
