CropNav: a Framework for Autonomous Navigation in Real Farms
Mateus Valverde Gasparino, Vitor Akihiro Hisano Higuti, Arun Narenthiran Sivakumar +3
Small robots that can operate under the plant canopy can enable new possibilities in agriculture. However, unlike larger autonomous tractors, autonomous navigation for such under c…
Lessons from Deploying CropFollow++: Under-Canopy Agricultural Navigation with Keypoints
Arun N. Sivakumar, Mateus V. Gasparino, Michael McGuire +3
We present a vision-based navigation system for under-canopy agricultural robots using semantic keypoints. Autonomous under-canopy navigation is challenging due to the tight spacin…
WayFAST: Navigation with Predictive Traversability in the Field
Mateus Valverde Gasparino, Arun Narenthiran Sivakumar, Yixiao Liu +5
We present a self-supervised approach for learning to predict traversable paths for wheeled mobile robots that require good traction to navigate. Our algorithm, termed WayFAST (Way…
Multi-Sensor Fusion based Robust Row Following for Compact Agricultural Robots
Andres Eduardo Baquero Velasquez, Vitor Akihiro Hisano Higuti, Mateus Valverde Gasparino +3
This paper presents a state-of-the-art LiDAR based autonomous navigation system for under-canopy agricultural robots. Under-canopy agricultural navigation has been a challenging pr…
