    Perhaps you are correct. I am wasting my time offering technical expertise and advanced equipmentt, even universities have never seen, that is far beypnd the intent of this forum.

    This such a wonderful forum for people working with drones and agriculture and across all levels of that space. 
    Let's be wary of bashing each others efforts, we all share the same core interest after all.

    IMHO.

    And if I want the complete opposite of that, how can I phrase that in a way that you will understand? I feel like this topic has been approached delicately, but it might need a few more expletives. 

    You are not needed to find higher quality options. We know where they are, and that's not the market we're shopping at.

    I state only facts.MAPIR's products are toys. If you want to see truly today's technology, not last century's, contact me. I will open your eyes & mind.

    Your demeanor is very hard to tolerate, Vega.

    it will be interesting comparing such rudimentary imaging systems from MAPIR with a much more accurate and advanced imaging system. Please post results when available.

    To It will he interesting compare the results with far more advanced

    Working on a blog post comparing the MAPIR to my barely functioning s100. I probably won't get a chance to do some aerial examples until tomorrow, but I should have raw (not .raw) images up in a blog within the next few hours.

    I still have a replacement s100 on the way because I have a time-sensitive project and don't want to be learning something new in the process, but I do have a MAPIR camera on the way as well. 

    I know that the s100 is more than adequate for what I have been working on and the results verified with ground truthing, but I am not a fan of the fragility. I'm pretty excited to see the results from the MAPIR compared side-by-side with what I have been getting already. I'll use any excuse I can to dump the s100, and it sounds like Peau productions is making some rapid progress in the upcoming models.  

    I think most of us would love to get our hands on some of the true multi spectral sensors, but there's something to be said for a product that can offer some results, at least. I'll write up a blog when I have a chance to test both cameras side by side.

What are the impacts of agricultural drones on the agricultural development of various countries?

Agricultural drones have gone from being questioned by the market to being actively promoted by the government, from tens of thousands to thousands of dollars. Behind this is the rise of technology in the entire industry. However, the degree of promotion of agricultural drones varies greatly in different regions. What do you think of the application of agricultural drones in your country?https://youtu.be/TDTW9TsvjZw EFT agricultrul drone solution

Open Source Drone Payload Project Supporting In-Flight AI

I'm leading a project to develop a completely open source system for deploying artificial intelligence and computer vision on a drone. We are trying to make the system as general purpose as possible, but one application would be supporting precision agricultural. The real-time, in-flight processing aspects of the payload are probably less interesting for precision AG, but the data collection and curation capabilities might be. We are getting started with a few specific missions, we are…
