What is GrassAds Robotic Technology?
In 2019, robotic technology is very common terminology when it comes to innovation. GrassAds was a pioneer in developing and using this specific technology for signage and promotional purposes with some of the worlds largest on-ground signage campaigns being created and delivered by our company.
"Coming from an agricultural background which then led to line-marking through our initial company Laserturf, we started to notice a large void in the sporting industry when it came to the accurate application of ground signage." Said GrassAds CEO Ian Mayfield. "Venues and sponsors were understanding the importance of having their brand and events being seen on the field or course where the action was taking place and not just through stand up banners or signage that had limited value when it came to actually being seen."
After years of development, research, testing and watching how branding and promotion has evolved into such an imperative part for venues and companies, the GrassAds robot was launched into the industry.
"There has been years and years of testing and development invested into the GrassAds robot to ensure our commitment to accuracy and impact was always delivered whether it was a sponsors logo on a golf course in the USA or the British Airways 'Welcome to Our Turf' campaign for the 2012 London Olympics that was bigger than fifteen tennis courts." Said Ian.
The GrassAds technology has been used in the industry for over a decade around the world for venues, campaigns and events with the primary focus of expanding new opportunities for not only creating advertising revenues but for sharing a message that spectators, players and participants notice and feel invested in.
"The technology we have developed allows our clients and licensees to deliver logos, campaigns and brands in wherever and whatever way they envision with the only obstacle being the imagine. We can be as creative, as big, as small and as versatile as required with minimum manpower required due to the application of the outlines being drawn by the robot itself." Said Ian.

GrassAds hits the track for NASCAR
The scorching heat of Las Vegas put everyone to the test, including the GrassAds Robot, when it came to outlining the feature track side logos at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway for a recent NASCAR event.
Spanning across 85 metres by 36 metres (278 feet by 118 feet), the South Point logo was the centre piece trackside for the Inaugural South Point 400.
Working in sweltering conditions, the GrassAds robot didn't fault through the course of marking out the 8 kilometres (4.9 miles) line work for the creation of 17 logos in total.
The painting was completed by Licensee Dale Pantelakis who has purchased the robot to service contracts with NASCAR venues and track and field layouts.
Using the Grassads robotic technology saved two days in project time over the use of traditional stencils and string lines
Much of the painting was completed at night with the clear visual of robot work under lights and in the day, making painting a simple accurate process.
Whilst our robot certainly isn't as fast as those hitting the NASCAR circuit, it's performance is just as reliable and impressive.

GrassAds worked with Mycroft Signs to bring together some amazing logos for the Texas 500. There was around 8km of robot linework involved in the design and many many gallons of paint. It was an amazing experience for GrassAds especially showing off our newest RB8 model. Some action shots of the progress below.
Rose Bowl Tailgating grass signage
It's almost just as popular as the football games themselves. The tradition of tailgating at the annual college football championship at the Rose Bowl, California is an event in itself. Beginning in 1982 where fans started to culminate in the areas surrounding the stadium in order to be a part of the atmosphere, tailgating is now a recognised and established event for the game.
As another way to instill a sense of team spirit and friendly rivalry, Stanford University took their game one step further with welcoming their fans and Alumni through two team logos displayed on the grounds at the tail gating area.
Another great way to be part of the fun and make the fans feel like they are part of something bigger. The grass signage was also a fantastic way for Stanford Cardinal to brand themselves. It must've done the trick with Standford winning the game 45-16 over the Iowa Hawkeyes.
