Innovation Cycle
We develop solutions with our customers in an innovation cycle that never ends.
Listen
We’re not here to tell our customers how to do their job. We’re here to help them work the way they want to work.
Design & Build
Address the needs and wants of both individuals and society.
Iterate
Test and refine and begin again.
Work Loop
The basic work loop has existed as long as people have been on the job. The analytics, connectivity, and automation we bring to it changes everything.
Assess
Gather data inputs through perception technology.
Analyze
Use AI to draw conclusions and make recommendations.
Act
Deploy connectivity and automation or act manually, because we believe in choice without compromise.
INTEGRATION BENEFIT
The Benefit is we can account for more complexity with more certainty and more simplicity than ever before.
Simplicity
Enables a novice operator to perform like a pro.
Productivity
Enhances productivity so the customer can focus on doing what they love to do.
Sustainability
Ensures sustainability of limited resources.
Quality of Life
It’s all about a better quality of life for individuals and society.
KATR
The Kubota all-terrain KATR is a four-wheeled multifunctional robot designed with advanced stability control that adjusts the robot’s four legs to maintain a level cargo deck enabling it to operate with a stable platform on uneven and sloped terrain
and making it an ideal solution for agriculture and construction environments.
- Real-time Stability Control
- Robust Construction
- All Terrain Mobility
- Electric or Diesel Engine
- Controlled remotely or via an onboard controller
Automation
We offer hands-on or hands-off operation for however the user wants to interact with their equipment. We’re not here to tell our customers how to do their job. We’re here to help them work the way they want to work. For some, they want the "muddy boot" experience, to be part of getting the job done. For others, their focus is on maximizing productivity, So we design and build reliable, versatile and intuitive equipment that provides a better quality of life for individuals and society.
Data and AI
We gather data inputs from various sources, synthesis the information and make recommendations. The benefit is to distill the complex into simple, executable actions. With this guidance, a novice can perform like a pro, whether in an agricultural field, on a construction site or on their personal property. This productivity improvement gives our customers back their most limited resource - their time - to focus on doing what they love.
Powertrain Options
We offer diesel, gas, hydrogen and electric options, because we believe in choice without compromise.
Hydrogen Engine Genset
Choice of power source without sacrificing performance.
The portable, hydrogen-powered generator matches the power of diesel models with the benefit of a quiet, clean hydrogen engine.
Smart Innovation for You.
