Abstract

There is provided a computer vision monitoring system and method for use in agriculture. The system has a frame; a battery mounted to the frame and providing electrical power; a Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) sensor mounted to the frame; a camera mounted to the frame; an enclosure mounted to the frame, the enclosure housing a processing structure. The processing structure executes instructions such as capturing point data from the LiDAR sensor; capturing image data from the camera; generating a 3D color-assigned cloud point data set from the image data and the point data; and determining crop characteristic data. The method involves similar steps as executed by the processing structure.
