The LiDAR- and cage-equipped Elios 3 quadcopter was designed with that challenge in mind.Continue ReadingCategory: Drones, TechnologyTags: Mapping, LIDAR, Quadcopter
Mobile system treats crop seeds using electrons instead of fungicides
Posted by ArielTechGeek 10 hours ago (https://newatlas.com)
Because seeds may contain yield-reducing fungi, bacteria or viruses, they're often chemically treated before they're sold to farmers. A new mobile system, however, substitutes microbe-killing electrons for harsh and eco-unfriendly chemicals.Continue ReadingCategory: Environment, ScienceTags: Fraunhofer, Agriculture, Crops, Plants, Electrons, Antibacterial, Fungus
