AI-Powered Aerial-Ground Collaborative Mobile System for Precision Spraying to Enhance Sustainable AgricultureProject Abstract:ÌýRemarkable increases in the use of synthetic herbicides have been reported for weed control. However, up to 98% of crop spray does not stay on the plants and flows into the environment, causing soil and water pollution. Therefore, reducing herbicide use is critically needed to develop resilient and sustainable agriculture, and it has significant positive impacts on public health, society, and the ecological environment.ÌýIn this initiative, we aim to develop an AI-powered aerial-ground collaborative mobile system for precision spraying to reduce herbicide use.Ìý CORE RESEARCH TEAMPrincipal Investigator:ÌýProfessor Shangpeng SunAssistant Professor in the Department of Bioresource Engineering at the Macdonald Campus of McGill University.
