Abstract
A device for pollinating plants such as flowering trees. The device is a movable platform such as a drone that has an image capturing device that is in communication with image recognition software. Images of plants are analyzed to detect objects that are consistent with pollen-receiving plants and/or plant areas. Once such plant object is detected, the device automatically disperses pollen in the proximity of the detected plant or plant object.
Claims12
A device for detecting plant objects, comprising:
- a movable platform;
- an image capturing device disposed on the movable platform;
- an image recognition system in communication with the image capturing device, the image recognition system being trained to recognize a characteristic of a plant that is adapted to receive pollen;
- a storage reservoir storing pollen therein;
- an action head adapted to disperse pollen;
- software configured to detect a presence of a plant that is adapted to receive pollen and to cause the action head to disperse pollen in the proximity of said plant.
