Mineral's rover really appeared to be a solution looking for a problem. Why do you need a giant, expensive vehicle to slowly roll through your fields and see how the crops are doing when you could fly over it with a $700 drone and just look at the video? "You can't see the berries from the air!" - OK, berries are perhaps a $40B market globally. Most of the rest of the $3T+ market you can see just fine from the air or even one of the many competitors offering satellite crop imagery. The rover doesn't even do anything in the field, unlike for example the LaserWeeder implement.
