Our Products
Delivering impactful solutions with precision.
Our Flagship Product,
See & Spray™
See & Spray™ applies deep learning and computer vision at scale, enabling machines to detect crops and weeds in real time and execute plant-level decisions with precision across complex field environments.
See & Spray runs deep learning models at the edge, processing high-resolution vision data in real time as machines move through the field. The system performs plant-level classification, decisioning, and actuation in milliseconds, with tightly integrated perception, control, and software pipelines designed for reliability in dynamic outdoor environments. This architecture enables scalable, production-ready deployment across diverse crops and field conditions. It means farmers use fewer chemicals, spend less, and grow more. It’s better for the crop, better for the soil, and better for the future of farming.
See & spray facts
Our flagship product, See & Spray™, is bringing precision to agriculture in a whole new way.
01
Herbicide Savings
In 2025, customers reduced non-residual herbicide use by nearly 50%, saving ~31 million gallons. Some trials achieved 59% savings, with See & Spray™ reducing chemical use without sacrificing performance.
02
Detects Every Plant, In Motion
See & Spray identifies crops and weeds in real time using 36 cameras scanning 2,500+ sq ft per second at up to 16 mph. It now supports a broad range of crops, from corn and soybeans to wheat, canola, and sugarbeets.
03
Powered by AI + Computer Vision
Our deep learning models enable plant-level decision-making in milliseconds. New central-frame cameras reduce dust interference, and optional full-boom lighting allows for nighttime operation.
04
Built on John Deere Equipment
Deployed at scale on large row-crop sprayers, field studies across seven states showed soybean yield gains averaging 2 bushels per acre, with some cases reaching 4.8, driven by reduced crop stress and chemical injury.
05
Designed for Real Farms
Field-proven across diverse conditions and crops, See & Spray is built hand-in-hand with farmers. In 2025, it was used on over 5 million acres of farmland, an area larger than New Jersey.
06
From Lab to Deployment
We design, build, and deploy in tight loops, shipping to the field fast. Since 2022, adoption has grown 20x across 15 states, delivering rapid ROI through 43–59% reductions in herbicide use.
product teams
Key Product Teams at Blue River Technology
The following focus areas are key product teams at Blue River Technology. Together, these teams design, build, and scale intelligent systems that apply machine learning and robotics to real-world challenges, delivering practical impact, field-ready solutions, and measurable value for our customers.
See & Spray Technology
See & Spray Technology revolutionized the traditional farming practice of broadcasting the entire field to enabling farmers to do their mission – spray only the weeds and protect their crop. Customers make an investment with every seed planted, and our focus is to enable each plant’s potential to be realized profitably and sustainably.
Autonomy in Agriculture
Autonomous tractors are now a reality. By leaving the tractor out to do more work, you can shave precious minutes off tight windows, beat the weather, and take advantage of favorable soil conditions when the time’s right. That’s more acres and more productivity, all without adding more labor.
Autonomy in Construction
Quarries supply the essential raw materials for building roads, buildings, and infrastructure, and it’s a complex process to mine, process, and transport materials. Focusing first on making Deere’s Articulating Dump Truck autonomous keeps the quarries moving and workers safe.
Autonomy in Turf
Autonomous mowing isn’t just about removing the driver; it’s about changing when and how work happens. By letting the autonomous mower handle the large, open “acres” of an office park or sports complex, crew members can focus on high-value tasks like pruning, detailed trimming, and bed maintenance that require human dexterity.
Autonomy on Jobsites
Earthmoving and roadbuilding are high-risk, people working in close proximity to traffic and heavy machines, and often operating 24/7. Building useful robots to transform how work gets done on a jobsite is critical for those on it and those it will serve.
Machine Learning
Machine learning is not just a feature, it’s the engine now cranking new capabilities like autonomy for once hard iron only machines operating in fields, lawns, quarries and construction sites. Blue River excels in engineering machine learning algorithms and robotics hardware solutions to tackle big problems for John Deere customers.
testimonials
Developed in the field, with farmers in mind.
We don’t build in isolation, we work side by side with farmers to understand the day-to-day reality of fieldwork. Every See & Spray™ feature is informed by real-world testing, continuous feedback, and the belief that better tools lead to better outcomes.
