ZAPTrack

It monitors the health of your garden or house plants. Would you use it?

Ultimately, ZAPTrack augments farmers with a digital twin of their land accessible from any smart device!

"If you've invented something new but you haven't invented an effective way to sell it, you have a bad business—no matter how good the product." - Peter Thiel At ZAPTrack, we're taking this wisdom to heart. We're not just building advanced agricultural robots but creating a marketplace that introduces gig work for farm operations. Our platform will: 1. Connect farmers with talent, machinery, and our robots 2. Provide accurate demand and pricing insights for ZAPTrack, optimizing our revenue forecasts and feature development roadmap 3. Offer a direct distribution channel to our customers 4. Enable service providers to own and maintain our robots, ensuring widespread adoption and support We're not just building a product; we're building the future of agriculture distribution. This is huge for a global market of small farms to compete with the efficiency of Large Ag Farmers, tech enthusiasts, potential service providers - we want to hear from you! How could this platform transform your agricultural operations? #AgTech #Farming

We're investigating deep deterministic policy gradients for continuous action spaces in order to create a multimodal reinforcement learning model trained on a time-series dataset of depth maps + correlated hardware signals (RC, PWM), all of them being continuous variables obtained during human operation. We're aiming for the model to be capable of predicting the hardware signals required for autonomous navigation using a rolling dataset of real-time depth maps and hardware signals as input. At ZAPTrack, we're big proponents of building in public, so we'll be sending updates as and when they come. Watch this space!

Vision-based autonomy stack coming soon

We are developing an outdoor autonomous navigation system that uses depth estimation for robots and drones to navigate the outdoor environment! Check out the demo of depth estimation using DepthAnythingV2 here:

ZAPTrack is a new autonomous platform for orchards that is currently focused on tasks for growing almonds! Learn more about our current autonomy:

Zaptrack, a startup building AI-powered farming robots, might seem small compared to profitable tractor giants. But smart investors see beyond current balance sheets. They're betting on Zaptrack's potential to dominate the future of agriculture. Traditional tractors are a mature market with limited growth(currently declining at over 8% in the US). In contrast, AI-driven precision farming is just taking off. It's like comparing Twitter to newspapers in 2013. Twitter lost money but had massive potential. Newspapers were profitable but declining. The market saw Twitter's future value and priced it accordingly. Similarly, Zaptrack's robots could revolutionize farming, creating a new market far larger than today's tractor industry. That's why its potential value dwarfs the "safer" tractor companies. Tomorrow's profits matter more than todays.

ZAPTrack combines object detection and path planning for navigating the outdoor environment! Follow our page see updates on how we achieve this in almond orchards in California!
