Deployed hyperspectral imaging on Jetson Nano edge models to assess crop health and moisture.
This agricultural technology solution uses drone-mounted hyperspectral cameras to capture detailed information about crop health, pest infestations, and irrigation needs across large farmlands.
The system processes multispectral data on Jetson Nano edge devices mounted on the drones, providing real-time analysis without requiring continuous connectivity.
Farmers receive actionable insights through a mobile application, allowing for targeted interventions that reduce resource usage while maximizing crop yields.
Developed a custom compression algorithm that preserves critical spectral bands while reducing data size by 85%.
Implemented an adaptive calibration system that accounts for lighting conditions, time of day, and seasonal variations.
Optimized the data collection and processing pipeline to complete analysis within the drone's battery life, with intelligent resumption capabilities.
"This drone system identified irrigation issues and early disease signs that would have cost us thousands in lost crops. The ROI was evident within the first season of use."
