OPG Innovative Hoeing Technique
Mechanical weed control system using GPS and camera guidance for precision hoeing in crops
or
Detail description
Mechanical weed control using GPS and camera-guided hoeing technology as a sustainable alternative to herbicides in agricultural crops. Developed within the EIP-AGRI project from 2019–2022, the system enhances precision by tracking seed drill positions via RTK GPS and using intelligent cameras for real-time plant detection. A sliding drawbar coupling improves stability and reduces tractor strain. The device ensures reliable operation during signal failure by switching between GPS and camera inputs. Designed for row crops, the solution supports digital agriculture and sustainable farming practices.
