Built for the vineyard first
Steep slopes, narrow rows, sensitive canopies and a short treatment window. KEA’s autonomy was designed around vineyards because nothing else is as demanding – and nothing else rewards precision as directly.
Row by row, autonomously
The drone follows the rows, not a grid. Row geometry is detected from the survey and refined in flight by on-board vision.
Automated vineyard missions
Plan once, fly repeatedly. Missions adapt to slope and row spacing automatically.
Available
RTK row navigation
Centimetre-level positioning keeps the drone centred over the row at low altitude.
Available
Precision spraying
Targeted application with drift-aware planning and per-row documentation.
In development
Disease detection
AI models trained on regional vine diseases flag suspicious zones for inspection.
In development
Yield estimation
Cluster detection and canopy metrics feed early yield estimates.
Research
Multi-drone operation
Several drones covering one estate in a coordinated mission.

Weather, timing and documentation
Treatment windows are short and weather-dependent. The KEA platform integrates local weather data into mission planning, blocks flights outside safe conditions and records the actual conditions of every mission for your plant-protection records.
- Weather-gated mission release
- Per-mission documentation with conditions and outputs
- Plot-level analytics across the season
- Export for advisory services and certification
