News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“It is becoming increasingly practical to obtain a multitude of digital images capturing plants in an environmentsuch as a field of a farm. Autonomous or semiautonomous vehicles such as mobile robots oraerial vehicles (e.g., drones) may be equipped with one or more vision sensors that are operable to acquiredigital images of plants from various spatial and/or temporal perspectives. For example, a wheeled robotequipped with camera(s) on its underbelly may be navigated along a row of crops so that its camera(s)can be operated to capture digital images of the crops, e.g., at a particular frequency or sample rate, ondemand, etc.
