Villainous weeds no match for Garford Robocrop

Just like in the movie where Robocop single handedly deals with the violent crime in the city, our new high- tech part machine-part computer, and driven by our very own cyborg, (well Neville,actually) is keeping the fields free from dastardly weeds.

A camera looks ahead and sends images of the plants to the computer which notes where they are and the speed at which they are approaching. Technical wizardry ensures the weeds are hoed out and the crop is untouched.
