Husqvarna, Charlotte, North Carolina, and GreenSight Inc., Boston, have entered into a strategic partnership to combine their technologies and create a solution for turf managers to heighten the quality of turf care, use fewer natural resources and greatly reduce costs in their overall management practices.
The solution, a combination of GreenSight’s cloud-based turf management platform TurfCloud and Husqvarna’s robotic Automower, will initially serve large scale outdoor facilities such as golf courses and sports turf facilities. Numerous trials have yielded results that have created new efficiencies and reduced labor needs.
“Our low noise, emission-free Automower combined with the GreenSight’s suite of digital management tools, sensors and imaging is a revolutionary step forward in turf management for golf courses, sports facilities and other public green spaces,” says Jason Connor, director of commercial robotics at Husqvarna.
“Bringing together two leaders in ground and aerial robotics is a natural partnership that has resulted in an industry changing turf management solution,” says James Peverill, GreenSight CEO. “The new platform brings together all of the turf manager’s drone imagery, sensor data, agronomic tools, labor and robotics planning systems into one revolutionary integrated digital command center.”
