Laser weeder G2 1200

tractor-mountedfor organic farming

Overview
The LaserWeeder G2 1200 by Carbon Robotics is a large-scale 40-foot laser weeding unit engineered for organic row-crop operations (maize/corn, soybean, cereals). It delivers scalable coverage with sub-millimeter targeting for selective thermal weed control.

Key features

• 16 modular laser units for configurable coverage
• Laser-based weed control with sub-millimeter targeting accuracy
• High throughput: approximately 3–6 acres/hour (1.21–2.43 ha/hr)
• Integrated AI crop and weed models for precise detection and classification
• Operator apps: iPad Operator App and Mobile Carbon Companion App
• Fleet monitoring and analytics via Carbon Ops Center

Technology & components

• 32 × 240 W diode lasers focused for plant thermal control
• 48 high-resolution cameras for real-time crop/weed detection
• 320 high-intensity LED bedtop lights for field illumination
• 100+ deep-learning crop models supporting detection and decision logic

Performance & application

• Typical coverage: 3–6 acres/hour (1.21–2.43 ha/hr), depending on crop and field conditions
• Sub-millimeter targeting to minimize crop impact
• Reported weed control efficacy up to ~99% depending on species, growth stage and operating parameters
• Designed for organic maize/corn, soybean and grain production

Tractor & installation requirements
