Divotron

    AUTONOMOUS DIVOT REPAIR

    The impossible job of filling every divot is coming to an end.

    Divotron is building an autonomous robot that finds and fills divots on golf courses. Divotron Vision, our first prototype, has already been tested on real turf. Divotron Pioneer robots are planned for courses in the 2027 season.

    THE PROBLEM

    End the endless battle

    Despite full crews and significant maintenance budgets, golf courses cannot keep up with the volume of divots created during daily play. The repair is still done by hand.

    On every course, divot repair is constant. Our aim is to take on that repetition, giving your team more time for the finer details and higher-skill tasks.

    FIELD TESTING

    We have taken Divotron Vision onto real turf for field testing, covering movement and material delivery.

    HOW IT WORKS

    One robot, from detection to repair

    Divotron is an autonomous robot designed to find and fill divots. This is how it is intended to work on your course.

    1. Find the divot

      Cameras and real-time AI detect divots in the turf.

    2. Drive to it

      The robot navigates between repairs and avoids obstacles along the way.

    3. Fill it

      A dispenser delivers repair material into each divot.

    4. Keep going

      The robot keeps filling while it has repair material and battery charge.

    FOUNDING PARTNER PROGRAM

    Work with Divotron on your course

    The Founding Partner Program lets golf courses be among the first to work with Divotron Pioneer robots. We are taking on a small number of Founding Partner courses.

    CANADIAN ROOTS

    Waterloo, Ontario

    Divotron grew out of the University of Waterloo MBET program. Charles caddied at Cabot Cape Breton and Beacon Hall Golf Club, and that experience shapes what we build. We are proving divot repair first, before other course maintenance products.

    Built in Canada

    Divotron is a Canadian company with its team in Ontario.

    Supported by Velocity

    We work out of Velocity, the university's startup incubator.
