Research on Spray Precisely Toward Crop-rows Based on Machine Vision
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method to aim toward crop-rows was put forward for spray control in this article. At first, the image of crops captured by a CCD camera was passed on computer, then crops were segmented from background by obtaining H value and its binary image was obtained by means of OSTU. Finally, the center line of crop-row was regressed by Hough transform after the binary image was morphologically eroded. A spray control system was designed to move the spray nozzle accurately on crop row.

Development of a Machine Vision System for Weed Detection during Both of Off-season and In-season in Broadacre No-tillage Cropping Lands
More than half of the Australian cropping land is no-tillage and weed control within continuous no-tillage agricultural cropping area is becoming more and more difficult. A major problem is that the heavy herbicide usage causes some of more prolific weeds becoming more resistant to the regular herbicides and therefore more powerful and more expensive options are being pursued. To overcome such ...
متن کاملCrop-row detection algorithm based on Random Hough Transformation
It is important to detect crop rows accurately for field navigation. In order to spray on line, a variable rate spray system should detect the crop center line accurately. Most existing detection algorithms are slow to detect crop rows because of the complicated calculation. The gradient-based Random Hough Transform algorithm could improve the calculation speed and reduce the computation effect...

The smart sprayer, a local-vision-sensor-based precision chemical application system, was developed and tested. The long-term objectives of this project were to develop new technologies to estimate weed density and size in real-time, realize site-specific weed control, and effectively reduce the amount of herbicide applied to major crop fields. This research integrated a real-time machine visio...
متن کاملValidation of the utilization of a specific spray machine to apply general herbicide (Glyphosate) for controlling weeds in chickpea farms in dry land areas of Iran
Weeds are a serious problem of chickpea cultivation in rain-fed areas of Iran and economic feasibility of crop production is mostly challenged by the method of control. In this study, two types of weed control strategies which are common in the country, including hand removing and hand removing + mechanical application, were compared with application of general herbicide (Glyphosite) using a sp...
متن کاملAutomatic expert system based on images for accuracy crop row detection in maize fields
This paper proposes an automatic expert system for accuracy crop row detection in maize fields based on images acquired from a vision system. Different applications in maize, particularly those based on site specific treatments, require the identification of the crop rows. The vision system is designed with a defined geometry and installed onboard a mobile agricultural vehicle, i.e. submitted t...
