Chemical Spray

Chemical spraying, particularly in agriculture, is undergoing a transformation driven by automation and precision technologies. Research focuses on developing autonomous robots and drones equipped with computer vision systems (e.g., using YOLOv5m and other object detection algorithms) for targeted spraying, minimizing chemical waste and maximizing efficiency. These systems utilize advanced algorithms for weed detection, plant segmentation, and trajectory planning, often incorporating federated learning for improved decision-making across multiple robots. This shift towards precision spraying promises significant environmental and economic benefits by reducing chemical usage and improving crop yields.
