1. Safety and Certification Considerations for Expanding the Use of UAS in Precision AgricultureThe agricultural community is actively engaged in adopting new technologies such as unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) to help assess the condition of crops and develop appropriate treatment plans. In the United States, agricultural use of UAS has largely been limited to small UAS, generally weighing less than 55 lb and operating within the line of sight of a remote pilot. A variety of small UAS are being used to monitor and map crops, while only a few are being used to apply agricultural... H. Verstynen, K. Hayhurst, J. Maddalon, N. Neogi |
2. Lameness Detection in Dairy Cattle Using GPS and Accelerometers Wearable SensorsLameness significantly impacts cow health and welfare on dairy farms, yet identifying lamecows remains challenging. Wearable sensors like GPS and accelerometers show promise for automated lameness detection, but their effectiveness outdoors is still unclear. Therefore, there are gaps in understanding their applicability and the necessary features for outdoor settings. Additionally, it is uncertain whether environmental factors, such as temperature and time of day, influence their the model performance,... N. Mhlongo, H. De knegt, W.F. De boer, F. Van langevelde |
