Carbon Robotics

Seattle-based Carbon Robotics has been named to Fast Company's annual list of the World's Most Innovative Companies for 2023. Carbon Robotics is being recognized for the development and impact of its LaserWeeder, a robot operated by artificial intelligence and computer vision that utilizes lasers to remove weeds efficiently and sustainably. In February 2022, Carbon Robotics launched the LaserWeeder designed to identify weeds and target them for elimination. The LaserWeeder's 30 high-powered CO2 lasers use thermal energy to destroy the weeds without disturbing the soil or damaging nearby crops. By the end of this year, LaserWeeders will be actively used on farms in 17 different states and three Canadian provinces. Fast Company's editors and writers sought out the companies making the biggest strides around the globe. Fast Company, headquartered in New York City, is published by Mansueto Ventures.
