Robotic pollination

Autonomous robots and drones that mechanically pollinate greenhouse and orchard crops — using computer vision, targeted air pulses or controlled pollen application — to supplement or replace insect pollinators where bee activity is unreliable, expensive or in decline. All four confirmed producers (Arugga, Edete, BloomX, Polybee) are headquartered outside the US/CN/EU triad, in Israel and Singapore, a genuine geographic concentration rather than a screening gap.
