| description | In this work, an inter-row tree detection and tracking techniques based on Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) method is developed specifically for a well-structured agricultural field where the trees are planted uniformly with certain distance that leaves it with number of inter-row spaces. The existing rows has created opportunities for an autonomous vehicle to navigate in between the trees to perform the plantation activities such as scouting, monitoring, rowing, pesticide spraying and others. Unfortunately, the complicated conditions in the farm impair this solution. Such conditions like large canopy of leaves covered the top of the farm has led difficulty on the Global Positioning System (GPS) signal to penetrate the field and set a stable communication with the autonomous vehicle. In addition, a dark environment is created around the farm which could worsen the usage of image as artificial lighting must be added to distinguish the landmarks from the background. Therefore, a new approach to detect the landmarks and navigate in the farm based on the lightweight sensors and less computation effort is proposed. In this method, the tree detection and diameter estimation techniques implement the modified tree-triangle diameter technique by using innovative technique based on infrared sensors. |
