NRI: INT: COLLAB: HIGH THROUGHPUT MULTI-ROBOT WEED MANAGEMENT FOR SPECIALTY CROPS

The main goals of this project are to (i) develop a low-cost precision sprayer to simultaneously treat a variety of weeds; (ii) develop a fleet of low-cost and multi-crop robotic platforms equipped with the precision sprayer for specialty crops (e.g. tomato, pepper); (iii) develop an intelligent and adaptive multi-robot coordination system to optimize spraying application for several specialty crops; and (iv) quantify the economic parameters necessary for the system to be commercially successful.
