1. Autonomous Edge-AI–Enabled Drone Systems for Real-Time Agricultural Inference and Decision-MakingHigh-throughput, low-latency phenotyping and field surveillance remain critical bottlenecks in precision agriculture and environmental monitoring due to delayed data turnaround, large data volumes, computationally intensive preprocessing, and expertise-heavy analysis workflows. These constraints hinder timely crop improvement, pest and disease management, and informed agronomic decision-making. To address these challenges, we present an integrated, end-to-end autonomous drone system that enables... |
2. A Dual-Arm Machine-Vision-Guided Robotic System for High-Throughput Tissue Sampling in Potato TubersHigh-throughput molecular pathogen detection in potato tubers requires tissue sampling methods that are both sensitive and specific. A critical step in this workflow is the manual extraction of tissue cores, which is labor-intensive and time-consuming, limiting scalability for large-scale diagnostics. To address this challenge, this study developed a machine-vision-guided, dual-arm coordinated inline robotic system that integrates tuber picking, rotation, and tissue sampling mechanisms. In this...

3. Enhanced Deep Learning Framework Driven Grape Berry Temperature Estimation and 72-h Forecasting for Precision Heat Stress ManagementThe increasing frequency of extreme summer heat events poses a significant threat to grape production in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), U.S., and globally. Elevated temperatures can induce sunburn, accelerate organic acid degradation, and cause anthocyanin loss, ultimately reducing berry quality. Berry surface temperature (BST), which can exceed ambient air temperature by up to 15 °C, is a primary indicator of heat stress severity. However, BST dynamics are governed by complex, nonlinear thermodynamic... |
4. Growth-Stage and Hourly Modeling of Non-Stressed Soybean Canopy Temperature Using High-Frequency Proximal Thermal SensingCanopy temperature (Tc) sensing provides a proximal, non-destructive approach for monitoring crop water status. It supports irrigation scheduling through thermal indices such as the Crop Water Stress Index (CWSI) and Degrees Above Non-Stressed (DANS), both of which require accurate estimation of non-stressed canopy temperature (Tcns) (Nakabuye et al., 2022). Maintaining a continuously non-stressed reference treatment to determine Tcns is operationally difficult, motivating development of weather-based... |
