Sounds like fun, right? Today, we’ll share with you a couple of projects that are using this set of technologies to solve real problems.
Fighting Weeds
As a human, you can easily distinguish and then neutralize weeds from cultivated plants, like tomatoes. A hardware solution to this problem needs to perform a bunch of complex tasks:
- Distinguish weeds from tomatoes
- Determine the exact coordinates of the weeds
- Precisely aim the laser at the weeds
- Set the laser power and exposure time to harm the weeds, but not the tomatoes
All these tasks were solved by Ildar Rakhmatulin and Christian Andreasen in their project, A Concept of a Compact and Inexpensive Device for Controlling Weeds with Laser Beams.
