John Deere released See & Spray Gen 2 in 2026
The latest generation of See & Spray™ represents a major step forward in how intelligent machines operate at the field scale. By applying advanced computer vision and deep learning, these systems identify crops and weeds in real time and make plant-level decisions as the machine moves through the field. The result is a more precise application, reduced chemical use, and better outcomes for growers operating under increasingly complex conditions.
What makes this evolution especially compelling from a technical standpoint is its breadth and scalability. The updated platform supports a wider range of crops and operating environments, unifying precision capabilities into a flexible system that can adapt to different use cases. Improvements in sensing, lighting, and machine control also extend when and where these systems can operate turning cutting-edge research into production-ready technology used across millions of acres.
For engineers, scientists, and builders, this kind of work is uniquely challenging. These systems must perform reliably outside the lab, handling dust, lighting changes, motion, and variability at speed. It’s a space where software, machine learning, and hardware come together and where decisions made in milliseconds have real consequences in the field.
That’s the kind of impact we focus on at Blue River Technology. We build intelligent systems that leave the lab, scale in the real world, and help shape the future of agriculture. If you’re excited by applied AI, robotics, and solving hard problems that matter, this is the work you’ll be contributing to.
