#318: Nohtal Partansky on Industrial Cannabis AI and Computer Vision Technologies

Cannabinoid Connect 318: Nohtal Partansky, Sorting Robotics

Nohtal Partansky is the Co-Founder and CEO of Sorting Robotics, the premier industrial automation technology company for the cannabis industry.

Nohtal is a serial entrepreneur and former NASA-JPL engineer. During his time at NASA-JPL, Nohtal was assigned to a project called the Mars Oxygen In Situ Resource Utilization Experiment (MOXIE), and the mission to develop a device that can take in the atmosphere of Mars and produce oxygen for people to breathe was successfully accomplished. 

While building Sorting Robotics, Nohtal witnessed first hand how the lack of automation in the cannabis industry creates inefficiencies that degrade the smooth operation of the value chain and diminish profit margins. Today, Sorting Robotics is solving those problems with AI-driven machines deployed across multiple states and in Canada. 

Topics Discussed:

  • Automating the cannabis value chain⁣
  • Robotics as a Service transforming repetitive manual labor ⁣
  • Identifying the right automation technology for specific processes⁣
