  • Publication number: 20230252625
    Abstract: An imaging system usable with an agricultural operations vehicle as the agricultural operations vehicle moves through a field includes a stereoscopic multispectral imaging sensor configured to capture images of the field in real time; a processor; and a memory. The memory includes instructions, stored thereon, which when executed by the processor cause the imaging system to: capture a real-time image by the stereoscopic multispectral imaging sensor; determine characteristics of field elements within the field based on the real-time image, wherein one of the determined characteristics of the field elements is a vegetation index; determine a morphology of the field in which the agricultural operations vehicle is moving based on the captured real-time image; combine as data the real-time image, the determined characteristics of the detected field elements, and the determined field morphology; and determine a location of the detected field elements based on the combined data.

  • Publication number: 20220369534
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for facilitating managing cultivation of crops based on monitoring the crops. Further, the apparatus comprises an apparatus body, cameras, light sensors, a processing unit, and a communication interface. Further, the cameras generate a measurement of a crop and a field portion. Further, the light sensors generate an environment measurement of an environment of the apparatus. Further, the processing unit analyzes the environment measurement, determines a factor affecting the measurement, and generates a calibrating factor for the cameras. Further, the calibrating factor facilitates compensating the affecting of the factor in the measurement. Further, the cameras calibrate a camera parameter of the cameras based on the calibrating factor to generate the measurement. Further, the processing unit analyzes the measurement and generates a status of the crop. Further, the communication interface transmits the status to a device.
