100% electric power by combination of lithium-ion batteries and solar batteries. Based on various data such as weather data and growth rates, AI chooses the appropriate operation and makes actions timely. The four-wheeled crawler adapts its shape to maintain the tractor height at the ideal level, thus performing in various methods.

For the methods which need high traction, the contact area with the ground to be improved by lowering the tractor height in order to reduce its center of gravity. On the other hand, when working above crops for their management, room from the ground to be improved by increasing the tractor height.
The in-wheel motor means it is possible to arbitrarily modify the rotation speed of the four crawlers (front, rear, right, and left) to produce a small turning space for autonomous operation on various sorts of land.
