Upcoming Conference:
Abstract: Precision agriculture involves observing the crop production process and applying appropriate actions to improve production efficiency. In this paper, a smart vision system is developed to monitor specialty crops which include fruits and vegetables. The smart vision system is composed of the image acquisition module and the image processing element. The image acquisition module is a modified point and shoot camera that could detect both visible and near-infrared wavebands, while the image processing element takes the multispectral image as an input and processes the images using a customized image processing algorithm for crop assessment. The smart vision system was tested using an experimental apple orchard, a commercial onion field, and a peach orchard. Results showed that the smart vision system was able to differentiate different watering input in the apple orchard, recognize the blossoms in the peach orchard, and detect the variation in the onion field.
