This study was carried out to develop a robotic transplanter for bedding plants. The transplanter consisted of a manipulator, an end-e!ector, plug tray conveyors and a vision system. The manipulator consisted of two electrical linear motors. It was used to move the end-e!ector to the desired working

The chemical application rates of many pre-emergence herbicides as well as fertilizers are sensitive to soil organic matter content. Research was conducted to examine the e!ects of static elevation changes on a real-time soil organic matter sensor which operates on the basis of measuring the electro
Research was conducted which examined the e!ects of dynamic elevation changes on a real-time soil organic matter sensor. Such soil sensors are intended to provide quick and economical methods of measuring soil properties. These soil properties are then useful in determining the proper chemical and f
A machine vision method has been developed for the detection of adult beetles, rodent droppings and ergot in harvested wheat. Samples were presented as a monolayer of around 25 generally non-touching but randomly oriented objects. Detection rates for artificially prepared samples ranged from 87% for
An algorithm for the automatic recognition of Fuji apples on the tree was developed for a robotic harvesting system. The machine vision system was composed of a colour charge coupled device camera to capture apple images, and a personal computer to process images for recognising and locating the fru
