Croptracker - Computer Vision in Agtech - Pt 2

Last week we took a look at computer vision; what it is, how it works, and some of the applications for computer vision in agtech. In case you missed last week's article, computer vision or machine vision typically refers to the use of machine learning or deep learning algorithms in image processing to allow a machine to "see" and identify objects around it. Different computer vision technologies may use a variety of camera types to act as the machine's "eyes" depending on the imaging requirements. In the case of fully autonomous vehicles, an accurate computer vision system is essential. In typical vehicles, hazard detection, navigation, and object avoidance all depend on a human operator.
