Overview
This service evaluates the efficiency of sprayer booms equipped with sensors that use artificial vision to detect weeds and enable site-specific phytosanitary applications. Through field tests and drone-assisted monitoring, the service examines how accurately the sprayer boom applies treatments, identifying false positives (detecting weeds where none exist) and false negatives (failing to detect actual weeds). The service is essential for improving precision agriculture practices in arable and horticultural crops, as well as in tree crops and viticulture.
