    Problem statement Andy

    Comments

    problem:
    tilling to bury weeds causes more erosion, no-till is easier but uses more herbiside
    solution: manually pick weeds, GMO but that needs patents and stuff, cover entire field in herbicide, intermediate crop but that uses water so no. just no -till normally but no one likes that since corps suck

    idea 1:
    community: farmers
    what they need: money (cheaper wages and less environment impact)
    effects: erosion, herbicide mostly lands on dirt and friendly plants, also if easier no-till = less erosion
    importance: food is important duh

    actually idea:
    15$ sterioscopic camera -> 2 images like 3 inches apart -> opencv or blockmatching to build depth map -> depthmap and image combined -> thresholding -> cut image into individual plants -> ai ->know if plant is a good one or a weed -> decide if to spray with precision herbiside so use less and more environmentally friendly

    research:
    computer vision scientist
    farmers

    idea 2:

    main problem: the drone costs a lot of money

    community: mappers and farmers
    what the need: money (more efficient growing)
    effects: calibrate moisture n stuff idk
    importance: ???

    actuall idea:
    10000$ drone -> measure stuff about farms -> ??? -> profit
