System and method for an agricultural applicator

A method for an agricultural application operation, the method comprising:

• receiving, from a target sensor, data indicative of one or more features within a field;
• identifying, with a computing a system, a target within the field based on the one or more features;
• determining, a nozzle activation time defined by a period between capturing of the data from the target sensor and a nozzle spray fan aligning with the target;
• and
• activating an actuator to rotate one or more nozzle assemblies between a first position and a second position about an axis of rotation based on the nozzle activation time deviating from a defined nozzle time range.

An agricultural system comprising:

• a product application system comprising:
• one or more nozzle assemblies;
• and
• an actuator configured to move the one or more nozzle assemblies between a first position and a second position;
• a sensing system configured to capture data indicative of one or more spray conditions;
• a target sensor configured to capture data indicative of one or more features within a field;
• and
• a computing system communicatively coupled to the product application system, the target sensor, and the sensing system, the computing system being configured to:
• identify a target within the field based on the data from the target sensor;
• and
• determine a nozzle activation time defined by a period between the capturing of the data from the target sensor and a nozzle spray fan aligning with the target based on the data from the sensing system.
