Sentera has come a long way indeed. I have been hearing of successful proofs of concept in detecting weeds for years. Academic conferences, marketing material, all showing stylized pictures with well placed boxes on top of weeds. I even have been guilty of arrogantly assuming that this is a solved problem in terms of algorithmic development. Only when you face the challenge of scaling and making this concept financially viable do you understand that there can be no solution without a robotic platform that supports rapid data gathering at the right parameters and a low entry cost. #PrecisionAg #AgTech #WeedDetection #WeedScout #Sentera
Discover how Sentera’s advanced 65R sensors are revolutionizing weed scouting. Our dual-mounted 65R sensors, used in combination with our innovative Direct Georeferencing (DGR) system, deliver precise, geolocated data with unmatched productivity. The dual 65R sensors together generate 130 total megapixels of crisp, global shutter imagery, captured at up to three frames per second. When paired with the Sentera DGR package, which offers a suite of high-accuracy sensors for camera location, pose, and range to scene, each captured pixel can be accurately projected to a location without lengthy post processing. The result is unparalleled productivity in high-resolution mapping and detection workflows. With Sentera's upcoming Aerial WeedScout application, the dual 65R + DGR system is employed to deliver 1.5mm GSD imagery that will be used to find and map ¼” and larger weeds at a rate of 80 acres per hour. Precise weed locations are mapped without ground control references or stitching, then used to selectively target weeds, ensuring reduced chemistry costs, healthier crops, and higher yields.
