1. Design and Development of a Spraying System for Under Canopy Rover and Its Integration with Computer Vision SystemChemical spraying such as herbicides, insecticides are essential in any agricultural field for controlling pest, weed etc. and ultimately increasing yield. About one-third of agricultural yields rely on the utilization of pesticides. However, around 3 billion kilograms of pesticides are used worldwide every year and effective utilization of it is merely 1%. The precise application of these chemicals is necessary to reduce negative impacts on environment as well as human health. The application... N.K. Piya, A. Sharda, J.R. Persch, D. Flippo, R.

2. System Development for Application and Testing of Spray-on Biodegradable MulchPlastic mulch films have long been a staple in agriculture and plays a critical part in the specialty crop production. Plastic mulch provides benefits such as conserving soil moisture, suppress weed growth and increase soil temperature. However, the widespread use of petroleum based plastic mulch films have raised concerns due to challenges associated with their removal and environmental impact. Plastic mulch has to be removed after every growing season. During the removal process, microplastic... N.K. Piya, A. Sharda, D. Flippo |
3. Real Time Application of Neural Networks and Hardware Accelerated Image Processing Pipeline for Precise Autonomous Agricultural SystemsModern agriculture is increasingly turning to automation and precision technology to optimize crop management. In this context, our research addresses the development of an autonomous pesticide spraying rover equipped with advanced technology for precision agriculture. The primary goal is to use a neural network for real-time aphid detection in Sorghum crops, enabling targeted pesticide application only to infested plants. To accomplish this, we've integrated cutting-edge technologies and... J. Raitz persch, R. Harsha chepally, N.K. Piya |
