This invention describes an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) designed to spray agricultural crops. It carries liquid active ingredients and has sensors that monitor the health and performance of its liquid reservoirs, spray units, and operating parts. Based on this sensor data, the UAV's onboard computer autonomously decides when it needs to return to a base station for services like refilling or maintenance.
Why it matters: Since 2020, advancements in drone autonomy, sensor fusion, and edge computing have made real-time health monitoring and autonomous self-servicing decisions, as claimed, significantly more robust and feasible.
