Automated within-row weed spot spraying is expected to provide a mechanism for controlling difficult weeds in the sugarcane industry while reducing herbicide usage and the labour of manual weed spot spraying. However, technologies need to be developed that enable...
Automated precision weed spot spraying in the sugarcane industry has potential to increase production while reducing herbicide usage. However, commercially-available technologies based on sensing of weed optical properties are typically restricted to detecting weeds...
Through recent advance in automation technology, agricultural processes are increasingly able to be applied to more complex applications through greater capacity in machine perception. Research at the University of Southern Queensland has tackled some of the important...
Sugar losses during cane cleaning in mechanical harvesters are estimated to cause millions of dollars of lost income per year. Existing commercially available loss-monitoring devices do not directly sense losses from the material expelled during cane cleaning in the...
