Abstract: A system for selective treatment of plants arranged in rows extending along a first direction includes a camera arranged along the first direction over a row of plants and a set of treatment units arranged at a first distance behind the camera along the first direction and over the row of plants. The camera is configured to move along the first direction while obtaining images of a target area that includes one or more plants that are to be treated. The set of treatment units is also configured to move along the first direction behind the camera while maintaining the first distance. The system generates a map of digitized unitary spots covering the target area based on the obtained images, and then sends the generated map to a computing unit, where a plant treatment application adds spot-specific plant treatment instructions to the generated map.

Abstract: Systems (12) for selective treatment of plants (8, 9) in row(s) (7) are using vision-based camera means (2) functioning with suitable principles to generate a dynamic map of digitized unitary spots, covering the actual area for treatment. Map data also comprise spot-specific decided treatment information and synchronizing data for treatment initiation from comprised individually controllable treatment means to sequentially frame all spots individually to treat possible plant on spot to have growth promoted, neutrally left, relatively retarded, or destroyed, or treat spot-present bare soil or not. System treatment means are inventively organized as series of many, individually controllable treatment means (1301-1305), situated over and along row (7) for individual spot treatment in treatment progression along row. Advantages are improved overall treatment speed from simultaneous use of all treatment means in series to distributed part-treatment summing to full individual spot treatment.
