Program:
Engage Grants for universities
Program Purpose:
The proposed research focuses on the selection, design, and installation of a myriad of imaging sensors on ax000D
tillage application implement to monitor the tillage process and also the design and implementation ofx000D
AI-based software to extract meaningful information from raw images/videos and to relay these information tox000D
the implement's operator via a flexible-autonomy paradigm. Therefore, the main focus of the project will be onx000D
the image-based information extraction on the implement's operation with applications in precision andx000D
autonomous agriculture.
