Abstract

Implementations are described herein for reducing the time and costs associated with the crop scouting in a crop field. In various implementations, a method is implemented using one or more processors, and the method include: operating, based on a type and arrangement of a crop field, a robot to travel along a trajectory through the crop field using a first gait. The robot includes one or more vision sensors. The first gait includes a first repeating cycle of poses of the robot. The method can further include: synchronizing operation of one or more of the vision sensors with one or more poses of the first repeating cycle of poses of the multi-legged robot to capture one or more initial sequences of images depicting one or more points-of-interest of crops growing in the crop field.
