Portable onsite swath sampling and processing system that analyzes the full spray swath, not just a few spray cards. Using inexpensive calculator paper rolls and dye as a collector, The Swath Gobbler™ system quickly and precisely reads spray data and provides actionable outputs. Swath Gobbler™ gives you the research-quality data you need to be the best in your field.
Drone sprays are highly variable. Without knowing swath, you have no idea what your real application rate is. Evaluating the actual spray is the only reliable way to understand the swath for a given use case (each spray's unique setup, environmental and canopy variables). Swath Gobbler™ helps you understand exactly how changes in use case affect your spray swath.
The Swath Gobbler system is easy to use and consists of three things: 1) the swath data collection, 2) the Swath Gobbler™ spray data acquisition device, and 3) the post-processing software.
