Predictive weed map and material application machine control

This invention describes a smart farm machine that precisely applies materials like herbicide or fertilizer. As it moves through a field, the machine uses its location and on-board optical sensors to detect weeds in real-time, identifying their presence, type, size, or intensity. It then uses this live data, combined with a predictive model that relates optical characteristics to weed values, to control exactly where and how much material to apply.

Why it matters: Since 2022, advancements in AI for computer vision and edge computing have made real-time weed identification and predictive modeling more accurate and efficient to deploy on mobile farm equipment.
