Bee is an advanced agricultural drone platform designed to tackle a variety of farming tasks, including crop health monitoring, pest control, and precision spraying. Fully autonomous, it utilizes multiple sensors for efficient path planning, adaptive terrain following, and automatic obstacle avoidance. Equipped with a powerful onboard microcomputer, Bee performs real-time crop health analysis using AI for enhanced decision-making.

Main features:

  • Remote crop diagnostics for early issue detection
  • Precision spraying to optimize resource use and reduce waste
  • Mechanical pest control for eco-friendly pest management
  • 60L liquid tank for extended spraying capacity
  • Manufactured in the EU, ensuring high-quality standards

The mechanical attachment system is designed to support a 60L liquid tank and other payloads required for specific tasks.

Another standout feature of this drone is its innovative battery replacement mechanism, which minimizes human intervention and enables 24/7 operation.

Just like real bees, this drone is hard-working, persistent, and highly efficient. Moreover, it can operate in swarm mode, distributing tasks among multiple drones — fully living up to its name and design.

Bee is a proud winner of the Red Dot Award 2024.

Why it’s important

Pesticides used in agriculture are toxic and can have serious health effects, including:

  • Decreased IQ
  • Loss of working memory
  • Attention deficits (e.g., ADHD)
  • Autism spectrum disorders
  • Thyroid hormone disruption
  • Reproductive issues
  • Metabolic disturbances
  • Nerve damage
  • Increased risk of Parkinson’s disease
