I don’t know if there is anything “wrong” with the existing trackers in the field. QBotix’s technology isn’t necessarily better — the company has a good idea and it claims its robots can do more than the more conventional, robotic arms of today’s trackers. But the technology hasn’t proven its market appeal yet.

This seems like an overly complex solution…..I dont’ see what is wrong with the current way of tilting panels?

Yes, that seems to be true, but at least the setup may become simpler. Instea of having multiple systems with gears, motors, logic blocks, there are a reduced number, depending on the number of robots that are needed.

So it’s just a typical tracker just called a robot. Cause everyone knows the existing automated trackers that run completely unintended are sooooo not robots.
