Gamaya is a Swiss company which provides drones equipped with hyper-spectral cameras for use in agriculture. [1] [2]

Contents

The company has 35 employees and is located in Morges, Switzerland. [3] Igor Ivanov is the current company CEO. [4]

History

Gamaya was founded in 2015 as an EPFL laboratory spinoff by Dragos Constantin, Igor Ivanov and Yosef Akhtman. [5]

In 2016, the company raised $3.2 million from the Sandoz Family Foundation, Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, Seed4Equity, and VI Partners. [6]

In 2017, Gamaya received the Swiss Economic Forum Hightech award [7] [8] as well as the Nvidia Inception award. [9]

In 2019, the company raised another CHF 12 million, led by Mahindra & Mahindra. [10] [11]

Hyperspectral camera technology

Gamaya's hyperspectral camera technology was developed between 2013 and 2015 through the EPFL Leman-Baikal project. [12] It captures 40 bands of light. [2] Hyperspectral images shot with a drone are then used to generate a survey of the land. [13] The data can be used for detecting invasive species and crop diseases, predicting yields, or for optimising soil treatment and fertilisation. [9]

Gamaya's cameras have been used in scientific studies as part of data collection for hyperspectral survey of agricultural crops. [14] [15] [16]
