My name is Harel, and I am co-founding a start-up specializing in agricultural technology, focused on early detection of plant diseases in pecan orchards. We are developing a multi-drone system potentially comprising different drone types that operates collaboratively to rapidly scan orchards and identify diseases using onboard AI-powered processing.
I came across your VOXL 2 product and believe it could be a strong fit for our project. I would like to consult with you to better understand if VOXL 2 is suitable for our use case, and whether you would recommend it or perhaps other solutions in your portfolio for our specific needs.
In particular, we are interested in:
Scalability & Coordination – Can multiple VOXL 2 units be networked or coordinated to work as a swarm across large orchard areas?
Sensor Support – We plan to use multispectral or hyperspectral imaging (e.g., NIR and RGB). How easily can VOXL 2 integrate such sensors, including thermal or FLIR modules?
Flight Control & Outputs – Since VOXL 2 is a companion computer with PX4, what are the options for connecting propulsion systems, sensors, or PWM outputs?
Development Tools – What SDKs, ROS 2 support, or AI/ML integration tools are available for real-time disease detection models?
Recommendations – Based on our description, would you recommend VOXL 2, VOXL 2 Mini, or perhaps one of your reference drone kits to accelerate development?
We would greatly appreciate your advice on how ModalAI’s solutions could support this project, as well as any examples from similar agricultural applications.
Thank you for your time and guidance. I look forward to your response.
Best regards,
Harel
