GreenPatrol is a European precision farming project aimed at developing a robotic solution for Integrated Pest Management in greenhouses. The robot can operate autonomously to detect several pests. It can generate and follow routes, avoiding obstacles. The robot is trained on the main pest and diseases of tomato and pepper and is being tested in northern Spain. Growers can access an online application to see the robot’s status and a map of healthy and infected zones, with recommended actions.The robot can identity where pests are located and treat them in a second phase. The robot has the ability to spray the plant with pesticide.
GreenPatrol je evropski projekt natančnega kmetovanja, katerega cilj je razvoj robotske rešitve za namene integriranega varstva rastlin v rastlinjakih. Robot deluje avtonomno in zaznava škodljive organizme. Deluje avtomatizirano in na podlagi poti, tako se lahko umakne ovirami v rastlinjaku. Robota testirajo, da prepoznava povzročitelje bolezni in škodljivce paradižnika ter poprovca v rastlinjakih severne Španije. Pridelovalci lahko dostopajo do podatkov, ki jih robot zbira preko spletne aplikacije. Robot lahko avtomatizirano nanaša fitofarmacevtska sredstva.
