At Indoor Ag-Con 2023, IUNU debuted its new imaging system for tomato growers.
The technology, the release announcing the system says, “can be used by growers to collect comprehensive crop data from fruit to flower.”
IUNU’s imaging mast varies from 10 to 15 feet tall, with up to 14 cameras, collecting data from the entire vine. This flexibility, the release says, “allows growers the ability to design the right solution for their crop type. The patented solution also uses stereo vision, collecting 3D information from the imagery collected.
The company says the system allows growers to collect 10 times as much data vs, other imagining options. It collects data from four modules: Crop Counts; Issue Detection; Crop; Steering (Automated Crop Registration & Leaf Area Index); and Forecasting
“Tomato growers want a solution that works. They want to use computer vision to help them forecast better, to detect issues faster, and to enable data-driven decision making. To do that, we have to collect great data, we have to be able to analyze that data, and most importantly we have to deliver actionable insights from that data. This new imaging system is best-in-class at data collection and LUNA AI is a world-class insights platform,” said Ethan Takla, Chief Technology Officer at IUNU.
IUNU is at Booth #325 At Ag-Con in Las Vegas this week where it is talking about the new technology and its LUNA AI.
