LaserWeeder: precision AI powered weed control in large-scale specialty crops
About us
Carbon Robotics builds the industry-leading AI-powered LaserWeeder G2™ which combines computer vision, AI deep learning technology, robotics, and lasers to identify crops versus weeds - and shoots the weeds with lasers. More than 100 of the world’s largest specialty crop growers have deployed LaserWeeders in North America, Europe, and Australia. LaserWeeders are designed at Carbon Robotics headquarters in Seattle, Washington and manufactured in our state of the art facility in Richland, Washington. Carbon Robotics has raised $157 million in capital since 2018 from investors that include BOND, NVentures (NVIDIA’s venture capital arm), Anthos Capital, Fuse Venture Capital, Ignition Partners, Revolution, Sozo Ventures, and Voyager Capital. What’s it like working at Carbon Robotics? We are a no-nonsense team of passionate people with a bias for action. We know that our ability to execute on our ideas is what sets us apart. We do what we say we are going to do, externally and internally. We trust our people to act independently and make practical, real-world decisions.

New NVIDIA Robotics blog dives into how Carbon Robotics combines lasers, AI, NVIDIA GPUs, and robotics to transform farming. With over 65 million plant images fueling our AI models, the LaserWeeder has built the world’s largest agricultural dataset—while eliminating billions of weeds. To date, Carbon Robotics has shipped over 150 LaserWeeders to farmers in 14 countries and eliminated over 30 billion weeds. That AI foundation also powers the Carbon AutoTractor, which transforms existing tractors into autonomous tractors that self-navigate fields, make real-time decisions, and operate around the clock.
