Canopy

Works with your OWL

A platform that lets you upload your imagery and train new AI models tailored to your field and needs.

Explore Canopy

  • Real-time, customisable weed detection

    No need for prior mapping, drones, controllers or a cloud connection.

  • Open-source hardware and software

    Repairable and accessible by design. Modify it to fit your farm. The design, code and guides are public, so you can even build one yourself.

  • Works completely independently

    No subscription needed. OWL runs on its own, offline, and it is yours to keep.

How OWL and Canopy work together

  1. Detect

    The OWL mounts on your equipment (an ATV, sprayer or robot), detects weeds in real-time and actuates up to four solenoids.

  2. Upload

    Images from your OWL are uploaded to your Canopy account with metadata included.

  3. Train

    Label the weed or object you want to detect and use it to train a model tailored to your farm. Share it with a community, globally, or keep it private.

  4. Use in the field

    Deploy your own trained model on your OWLs and improve it with every new image you upload.

Don't wait for the precision agriculture you need

We made the OWL open source so everyone can innovate whenever they feel like it. With Canopy, you can bring your vision AI ideas to the field and into reality.
