Summary

This presentation is aimed at estimating the position of the robot in row crops despite continuous changes in the environment (due to wind or small plant growth), using a LiDAR sensor to obtain global point clouds (previously registered, all-terrain) and local point clouds (from one part of the ground obtained during the advance of the robot), in fertilization tasks


EPrint Type:Working paper
Teaser:Results show that using the adequate extraction of characteristics in global and local point cloud maps, it is possible to determine the robot's relative position for fertilization tasks (blue) and the sensor (red) concerning the crop. This technique has applications in a variety of crops due to wind or small plant growth.
What problem does the tool address?:Using robotics for targeted fertilisation in a strip-crop environment
What solution does the tool offer?:How to train a robot to find individual plants for individualized fertilization
Country:Spain
