Plant Height Measurement System for Mobile Platforms
A plant height instrument which incorporates RTK (real-time kinematics) quality GPS positioning to establish an exact, unchanging soil elevation reference base while in motion. The positioning data provides the compensation necessary to accurately measure plant height while driving over uneven terrain, overcoming the instability inherent in sonar sensors...
