SAM-DIMENSION GmbH
"Präzision, die sich auszahlt."
German agtech startup making SAM-CAM AI drone mapping system for precision spot-spray weed control at 1.6mm/px and 60+ ha/h.
SAM-DIMENSION GmbH is a Stuttgart-based agtech company founded by Dr. Alexander Linn and Dr. Robin Mink, with roots in agricultural science, computer vision, and precision farming research. The company develops and operates the SAM-CAM AI — a drone-mounted, edge-AI-powered multispectral camera system purpose-built to generate spot-spray maps for precision herbicide application across arable crops.
The core product, SAM-CAM AI, uses a 6-lens optical array to survey fields at over 60 hectares per hour at a ground resolution of 1.6 mm per pixel in spot-spray mode. On-board real-time edge AI processes the imagery during flight to detect individual weeds — including monocots and grasses — from the cotyledon stage onward, and distinguishes crop from non-crop vegetation without needing post-processing on external servers. Spot-spray maps are delivered in ISOBUS-compatible formats within 24 hours of the flight, enabling farmers to apply herbicides only where needed using their existing ISOBUS-equipped field sprayers.
Customer testimonials (e.g., Jan-Marten Scheel, Lohnunternehmen Scheel Sarlhusen) report herbicide savings of up to 75% through targeted spot-spray application. SAM-DIMENSION's maps are validated for use with sprayers from Horsch, Hardi, Amazone, John Deere, and Agrifac.
The company serves crop types including sugar beet, maize, cereals, oilseed rape, onions, potatoes, carrots, peas, beans, sunflowers, soybeans, and grassland. It operates primarily in the DACH region and has won multiple industry awards: Innovationspreis Moderne Landwirtschaft (2024), KI Champions Baden-Württemberg (2025), Stuttgarter Innovationspreis, EIT Food Marketed Innovation Prize (2024), and the Biooekonomie Ideenwettbewerb Baden-Württemberg (2025). The team is headquartered at Bussenstr. 54/1, 70184 Stuttgart, with AI annotation operations in Czech Republic.
