Embodiment Construction

[0056] figure 1 An example of a device 10 for weed control is shown. The device 10 comprises an input unit 20 , a processing unit 30 and an output unit 40 . The input unit 20 is configured to provide at least one sensor data of the environment to the processing unit 30 . The processing unit 30 is configured to analyze at least some of the at least one sensor data to determine at least one ground property for each of a plurality of locations of the environment. The processing unit 30 is further configured to determine, for each of the plurality of locations, a power setting for activating at least one electrode-based weed control unit. Determining a power setting for activating the electrode-based weed control unit includes utilizing at least one ground property associated with the location. The output unit 30 is configured to output information that can be used to activate at least one electrode-based weed control unit.

Abstract

The present invention relates to an apparatus for weed control. It is described to provide (210) a processing unit with a least one sensor data of an environment. The processing unit analyses (220) atleast some of the at least one sensor data to determine at least one ground property for each of a plurality of locations of the environment. The processing unit determines (230) a power setting foractivation of at least one electrode based weed control unit for each of the plurality of locations. The determination of the power setting for activation of the electrode based weed control unit comprises utilization of the at least one ground property associated with that location. An output unit outputs (240) information useable to activate the at least one electrode based weed control unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for weed control, a system for weed control, a method for weed control, as well as a computer program element and a computer readable medium. Background technique [0002] The general background of the invention is weed control. Certain industrial areas and areas around railway tracks require vegetation control. For railways, this control improves visibility from the perspective of people on the train, such as the driver, and also improves visibility from the perspective of people working on the track. This control leads to improved safety. Additionally, vegetation can disrupt or damage tracks and associated signal and communication lines. Vegetation control is then required to alleviate this situation. Vegetation control, also known as weed control, can be very time-consuming and resource-intensive, especially if performed manually. Weed sprayer trains carry herbicides contained in chemical tanks on the train tha...
