Smart Pest Scouting
Project Area of Specialization Artificial IntelligenceProject SummaryOur project Smart Pest Scouting is developing an innovative solution for PEST detection and calculation by using state of art Drone Technology and Artificial Intelligence.
Annually between 20 to 40 percent of global crop production are lost to pests. Farmers are facing a lot of problems in manual pest detection. The global economy suffers a loss of $220 billion due to plant diseases and invasive insects around $70 billion.
The challenges to safeguard the well-being of plants, the environment, human health, and the economy are increasing with every tick of the clock. We are developing an automated way of pest detection and analysis of fields it will also give the exact amount of spray that requires.
Project ObjectivesAvoiding costly disease outbreaks.
Access to healthier diets.
Reducing environmental impact.
Affordable and accessible.
Best practise of UI and UX design.
Project Implementation MethodGathering requirements by meeting the farmers and agriculture consultants.
Pre-launch planning
Minimum Viable Product.
Agreement with Agro Market Companies.
Launch our product at the District level.
Final Product launch.
Benefits of the ProjectMaximize the growth of plants by detecting pest which damages the crops.
After detecting the pest we know the amount of spay required to save crops and plants.
Create positive environmental impact by using state of art Artificial Intelligence and Drone technology.
Technical Details of Final DeliverableWe are developing a Python model which detects pest using Machine Learning and Andriod Mobile App which shows the amount of pest detected and spay required.
