The company is fairly interesting, if seemingly early, but this article is atrocious. It repeats itself all over, it’s riddled with broken grammar, weird sentence structure, and a few typos, and the “name all our products like people” thing only adds to the confusion.
- SlowRobotAhead 8y agoYea, hit or miss with wired. On the topic, this is one of those things that looks good to a non-farmer, but tractors are big and heavy for reasons. I encourage the idea; but I don’t think the manual tractor is going anywhere soon.

From their crunchbase profile it says they've got 1.2 million pounds in funding, but need double that ++ to get started: https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/the-small-robot-company#section-recent-news-activity https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/the-small-robot-comp...
- all2 8y agoThose are definitely all renders. I've worked on my share of prototype robotics. To get to the degree of polish they present, you'd need a heavy industrial behind you (see Fanuc or Mitsubishi or similar).
