Multiple emitters to treat agricultural objects from multiple payload sources

This invention describes a smart farming system that uses computer vision to identify specific plants or areas in a field needing attention. It then uses a robotic delivery system equipped with multiple groups of spray nozzles arranged in lines to precisely apply different liquid treatments, such as fertilizer or herbicide, to those identified agricultural objects as it moves.

Why it matters: Since 2022, the rapid evolution of efficient AI models and edge computing hardware has significantly improved the feasibility of real-time, high-precision object identification and targeted application on mobile agricultural platforms. This makes the complex vision and control systems described more practical and responsive.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
