Future Home With Tom Duncan And Joe Jones The Creator Of The Tertill Garden Weeder

  • Summary

  • Tertill relentlessly patrols your garden to prevent weeds from taking over.
    If you’re like most people, weeding is one of the biggest challenges in maintaining your garden. Weeds steal water and nutrients from your plants, harbor insects, shade and crowd your vegetables, and are an eyesore. Despite the time and expense of applying mulch or weed block, weeds often still find a way into the garden. Now, Tertill offers a better way.
    Created by roboticist Joe Jones – inventor of the Roomba – Franklin Robotics’ Tertill is a robot designed to live in your garden and take care of the weeding, come rain or shine.
    On this episode Joe talks about how much robots break our hearts. We do everything we can to figure them out then everything changes. It was the idea of learning about how plants need space in order to grow that inspired Joe to look toward agriculture. Building a robot that weeds a home garden. What they learned with Tertill was how much it actually kills the weeds before they even come up.
