Orchard Spraying
This Project is no longer active.
NREC converted a John Deere tractor into an autonomous vehicle for spraying water in orchards.
NREC developed a vehicle retrofit kit that allowed the tractor to operate without a human driver. Its software accurately estimated the vehicle’s position and enabled it to autonomously follow previously-driven paths.
The autonomous tractor sprayed water while following a seven kilometer long path through an orange orchard without any human intervention.
