This study describes a fully automatic system developed at UC Davis for intra-row mechanical weed control for processing tomatoes in California. We developed a novel weed control system using a real-time kinematics (RTK) global positioning system (GPS) to automatically control the path of a pair of weed knives based upon an automatically...

This study investigated the feasibility of using real-time kinematics (RTK) GPS to automatically map the locations of tomato transplants in the field as they are planted using a vegetable crop transplanter retrofitted with an RTK GPS receiver, and an on board real-time controller. Two detection methods were evaluated for sensing plant location...
