"Birdscaring robots for vineyards and orchards"
Autonomous bird-scaring robots for vineyards and orchards in New Zealand.
Autonabit is a New Zealand-based company developing autonomous ground robots for bird deterrence in vineyards and orchards. Its flagship product, Avvy, is an electric, self-navigating vehicle equipped with kites, gas guns, and other deterrents to protect crops from bird damage. Avvy has been deployed commercially in New Zealand since 2020, operating across terrain ranging from flat Wairau Valley vineyards to steep Central Otago orchards.
The platform is managed via a smartphone app and dashboard, allowing growers to schedule programs, define zones, and generate compliance reports remotely. Autonabit was founded by Josh McCulloch, drawing on research from the University of Canterbury into robotic applications for viticulture.
