Control shoot and root needs independently
Two physically separated zones can run different climate and gas regimes.
CONTROLLED POTATO PRODUCTION PLATFORM
Controlled potato production — from plant material to target tuber.
AeroPotato combines separate shoot and root/tuber environments, plant-state monitoring and robotic crop handling in one modular production architecture.
2separately controlled zones
4+3robotic architecture
≤48hemergency-design window
Final operating regimes, output and economics are validated through a pilot for the specific variety and production objective.

WHY THIS ARCHITECTURE
Not one automated operation. One controlled biological process.
Base decisions on plant state
Observation and measurements are used to change the regime, not just display data.
Keep non-ready tubers growing
Support, measurement and selective harvest enable different target specifications.
Scale only what has been validated
The modular architecture is scaled after pilot validation of variety response, output, energy and economics.
CLOSED CONTROL LOOP
The plant is the control reference.
AeroPotato observes the plant, interprets data, changes the regime and measures the response again through the growing cycle.

THE SYSTEM AT A GLANCE
Two biological zones. One control loop.
The system connects plant state to microclimate, nutrition and robotic operations without exposing critical constructive details.

HOW WE TREAT EVIDENCE
Separate the architecture, the validation and the protected know-how.
A deeptech project should be explicit about what belongs to the system, what a pilot must prove, and what remains proprietary.
What the system is designed to control
Separate environments, nutrition, monitoring, tuber support, robotic operations and emergency modes.
Explore technology →What must be validated for each project
Variety response, target output, regime stability, energy, productivity and unit economics.
Validation approach →What is not disclosed publicly
Critical environment-distribution geometry and mechanics, plus other constructive details that form part of the technology know-how.
WHO IT IS FOR
One technology core. Different production scenarios.
The configuration is built around variety, starting material, target product, volume and project requirements.

PATH TO AN INDUSTRIAL PROJECT
Validate first. Scale what works.
Every project starts with a measurable target and moves through a pilot before industrial scale-up.

NEXT STEP
Start with the product you need to produce.
For the first conversation, the target product, variety or variety group, approximate volume and project location are enough.
