SAGA Robotics

Info

The Thorvald platforms represent a low-cost alternative to a wide variety of agricultural operations.

Historie

All the Thorvald robots are built using the same components, but we customize each robot for your specific needs based on the innovative modular design. We can therefore deliver robots using standard parts but customized design to serve your needs.

All our robots are built to operate in an outdoor environment. They are therefore IP67 classified at all the lower parts that may be submersed in water (wheels, lower gears, etc), and IP56 for the rest of the robot.

Vår oppgave

To be a game-changer in the agricultural sector by developing autonomous robots capable of performing a wide variety of agricultural operations at lower price and with higher quality than conventional systems.

All our robots are built to operate in an outdoor environment. They are therefore IP67 classified at all the lower parts that may be submersed in water (wheels, lower gears, etc), and IP56 for the rest of the robot.

We currently have three different series. The W-series is the working horse of the Thorvald platforms. It can be delivered with four-wheel drive and four wheel steering (W4.4) for energy demanding tasks, or a simpler two-wheel drive (W2.0) for simpler and less energy-demanding tasks.

The C-series is a more compact design, primarily for indoor use in tight spaces like greenhouses. You can customize the width of your robot to your spaces and needs. We currently have two version of the W-series, the W1.1 with on wheel drive and steering and the W2.0 with skid steering.

The R-series are customized platforms built for research purposes. These robots are built to operate in test fields with narrow tracks and high plants. The R-series operate in the field without damaging the plants, and are therefore narrower and higher than the W-series.

"Saga Robotics is the company responsible for the design, development, and production of the world-leading agricultural robot, Thorvald. The company's aim is to develop robotic solutions that address the growing labour shortages in agriculture, as well as making agriculture more sustainable and energy efficient. Saga Robotics have developed an autonomous and completely self-propelled robot that uses advanced algorithms to navigate in challenging conditions found on farms. Saga Robotics is also involved in several projects where they develop tools for strawberry picking, weeding, crop prediction and much more."
