Yup, but on a tiny scale - 1 square meter instead of 1 hectare at a time: https://farm.bot

It's a converted CNC router machine with cameras and water and weeding attachments.

Though I'm sure you can mount a big version on a wheeled vehicle that drives around tending the farm.

This farm bot is so neat, very interesting. It has my pondering if I should get one since I just moved out into the country.

I suppose I should first just get a planter and do some regular growing first and then I'll be better positioned and understand its benefits.
