Objective
PATS provides a fully automatic insect control solution, which combines automated monitoring and AI solutions with high control methods such as bat-like hunt drones and ultrasonic predator-prey confusion.Our vision is to revolutionize agriculture by combining biology with technology. We offer an ecosystem of innovative solutions designed to enable organic farming and significantly reduce insecticide usage. By integrating biological control with our technological methods, we aim to cut insecticides by 75% and achieve a 10% reduction by 2030.Our control methods effectively tackle hard-to-manage pests that previously necessitated insecticides. The collateral damage from these chemicals disrupts biological control, not just for these pests but also for others. Our automated monitoring provides precise data on flying pests, natural predators, and pollinators. This granular data empowers farmers to optimize biological control, improving its efficiency and making it a sustainable choice.
