Abstract

An agricultural system can include a boom assembly including a frame section and a boom section pivotably coupled to the frame section. One or more nozzle assemblies may be operably coupled with the boom assembly. A boom movement sensor may be configured to generate image data and a machine sensor may be configured to generate machine data. A computing system may be communicatively coupled to the sensor. The computing system may be configured to determine an estimated boom position of the boom section based at least in part on the machine data, determine a position of a target within the image data based at least in part on the estimated boom position of the boom section, modify the image data based on the position of the target to create modified image data, and determine a magnitude of deflection based on the modified image data.
