Benefits of High Precision weeding

When speaking of high precision weeding, Ecorobotix means:

1- Recognition of each specie: crops and weed species, to map precisely each plant location;

2- The size of spraying pixels: the best time is at an early stage;

3- Accuracy: as the camera is positioned approximately one metre before the sprayer, the robot movement needs to be highly accurate to spray at the right time;

4- The spraying pattern:it requires to be as precise as possible to not spray on the crops;

5- Output of the robot.

What are the benefits of high precision weeding, aka "spot spraying"?

• Less chemicals sprayed
• On row spraying
• Less phytotoxicity, and thus higher yields.
