Aphid-ResNetSwin: An Image Recognition Method with Improved Attention Mechanism for Graded Identification of <i>Myzus persicae</i>

Myzus persicae is the most devastating piercing-sucking pest threatening tobacco production. Precise quantification of infestation severity is a prerequisite for precision pest management, making the integration of visual image analysis hig...

Exploiting Three-Dimensional Gaze Tracking for Action Recognition During Bimanual Manipulation to Enhance Human–Robot Collaboration

Human–robot collaboration could be advanced by facilitating the intuitive, gaze-based control of robots, and enabling robots to recognize human actions, infer human intent, and plan actions that support human goals. Traditionally, gaze trac...

Automated harvesting by a dual-arm fruit harvesting robot

Abstract In this study, we propose a method to automate fruit harvesting with a fruit harvesting robot equipped with robotic arms. Given the future growth of the world population, food shortages are expected to accelerate. Since much of Jap...

Tracking and Analysis of the Movement Behavior of European Seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) in Aquaculture Systems

Monitoring and understanding fish behavior is crucial for achieving precision in everyday husbandry practices (i.e. for optimizing farm performance), and for improving fish welfare in aquaculture. Various intelligent monitoring and control ...

Secured Perimeter with Electromagnetic Detection and Tracking with Drone Embedded and Static Cameras

Perimeter detection systems detect intruders penetrating protected areas, but modern solutions require the combination of smart detectors, information networks and controlling software to reduce false alarms and extend detection range. The ...
