At the forefront of agricultural science and technology, the National Key Laboratory of Robotics Technology and Systems of Harbin Institute of Technology, together with the Central Research Institute of Huagong Science and Technology (CRIHST), jointly researched and developed China's first all-weather intelligent laser weeding robot, which has revolutionized green agriculture with its innovative concept of “zero pollution of the environment, zero damage to the land, and round-the-clock operation”.
Technical details
Laser Weeding Principle: The robot utilizes physical targeted weeding technology by irradiating weeds with laser light, which acts directly on the internal cells of grass leaves, causing the cells to dehydrate and rupture, thus realizing rapid weeding. Compared with traditional chemical weed control, this method does not require the use of pesticides and avoids pollution of the soil and environment.
AI Intelligent Recognition System: integrating artificial intelligence technology with deep learning algorithms, the robot is able to intelligently recognize weeds and crops in the field. With a high-resolution camera and advanced image processing technology, the robot can distinguish and target in real time.
Multi-target target localization and dynamic compensation algorithm: the robot adopts an innovative algorithm that can identify and localize multiple targets at the same time, and adjusts the timing and position of the laser irradiation in real time according to the dynamic changes of the targets to ensure the accuracy of weeding.
