2023/08 - Forbes : Canadian Robot Revs Up Driving Range Efficiency
Collecting golf balls on a driving range is a Sisyphean task that consumes hours each day. But maintaining a steady supply is vital—run out of orbs and the whole operation grinds to a halt.
A Toronto area agri-tech player has come up with a way to ease this pain point. Korechi Innovations, a farming robot manufacturer, has broken into the golf industry with Pik'r, an autonomous range picking solution.
2023/07 - Spark Centre : Tired of Retrieving Golf Balls? There’s a Robot For That.
The Pik’r is the first heavy-duty, high-capacity autonomous robot dedicated to golf ball retrieval for various golf facilities, from busy driving ranges to high-end private golf country clubs. The Pik’r automates existing three and five-gang golf ball pickers, can pick up ten times more balls than its competitors and is available on a service rental model with the option to buy five or more units. This robot has become in high demand across North America and Europe. The 2023 RBC Canadian Open used Pik’r to pick up the balls at their practice facility, which was featured in a PGA Tour video that has been watched more than three million times.
2023/07 - Golf Industry Network : Canadian Technology Advances in the Sport of Golf
When we think of technological advances in golf we usually think of drivers, irons, putters or even golf balls. Seldom, if ever, do we associate technological advances in the sport with how we pick up balls off the driving range or how golf carts are powered. Yet, that’s what’s happening right now in golf in Canada and beyond, as the robot Pik’r and the solar powered SunRunner golf cart are creating a buzz. Here’s the story of these two Canadian made innovations.

2022/11 - Robotics and the human factor: healthier food for consumers
What food we grow, trade, and eat is highly dependent on what we can profitably harvest, transport, and store, according to Sougata Pahari, CEO & Founder of Korechi Innovations in Canada. “Technology not only enables us to be more efficient in growing food (less water, chemicals, and fertilizer) but also to grow new or less-popular varieties, simply because they could be more labor-intensive,” he says. “The new generation of farming robots also tend to be electric, which helps with the reduction of GHG emissions. If we play our cards right, agriculture could go from being one of the worst emitters of GHG to a net carbon absorber.”
2022/10 - Pik’r set to revolutionize range operations
As important as the driving range is to course owners and golfers worldwide, there is one inescapable reality with respect to its operation: A range needs to be picked. Unlike balls at a bowling alley, those striped, yellow and white balls imprinted with PRACTICE on the side aren’t returned via conveyor belt.
