Project MARS

Research in the field of agricultural robotics. Precision Farming - Thinking ahead.

MARS stands for Mobile Agricultural Robot Swarms. Or in other words, it stands for agriculture of the future.

They are mobile. They are cloud-controlled. And they are many. They are the field robots of the future from Fendt. As a team, they collaborate in a completely autonomous and efficient way and with high precision. The basic idea is simplification.

How? Fewer sensors, robust control units and a clear hardware structure make each individual MARS robot extremely reliable and productive. At the same time, the use of a large number of small, identical robots operating in a swarm enables smooth running of the job, even in the event of the failure of a single unit.

Their light weight results in a high level of safety and negligible soil compaction. And MARS robots are ready for operation, all around the clock. These aspects combine to make field robotic systems a very attractive alternative for the farmer of the future. This is our vision.
