Enhancing agricultural production while reducing input costs remains a central challenge in modern row-crop management. Recent advances in computation, imagery, and sensors are enabling more efficient practices across various agricultural domains, and automation technologies are increasingly available to manage tasks central to perennial crop development. Automation in row-crop agriculture, by contrast, lags behind. This thesis explores utilizing small, unmanned ground vehicles to transform row cropping through the implementation of unconventional, in-season management strategies. The first focus of this work considers improvements to nitrogen fertilization using small, autonomous vehicles. An agronomy experiment in corn assessed the effects of gradually applying nitrogen …

The objective of this project is to deliver safe DMS hardware and interfacing/preprocessing software on which Toyota can run its drowsiness detection neural net. The system shall: securely house all necessary imaging, electronic, and computer hardware to output facial recognition data to the car’s computer, without data input from any other car system; obscure less than 10% of the driver’s field of view out of a standard windshield; be able to capture and process images such that the image classification neural net recognize the images, meeting the top-1 benchmark accuracy statistic across static and dynamic car-cabin lighting conditions; and meet …
