The objective of this project is to integrate a new camera-controlled in-row hoeing technology for maize, sugar beet and sunflower into an exisiting hoe with sensor-based side-shift control. The new in-row system needs to identify weeds and crops in real-time. The in-row tool selectively controls weeds without damaging crops.
