Abstract
As the primary famers ages, the transfer of the "experience and intuition" of skilled farmers becomes a challenge. Therefore, the development of plant sensing technology to replace farmers' "eyes" is attracting attention. At the core of this technology is "high-throughput plant phenotyping technology" utilizing AI and robotics. Autonomous robots automatically collect plants growth images, and AI accurately extracts information such as the number, condition, and growth of plant body. Furthermore, 3D image reconstruction technology is being used to measure plant features with even greater precision. To further improve the performance of these technologies, the application of "digital twins" is also beginning. We believe that if we can replace the visual judgment of skilled farmers with digital technology, we can further advance data-driven agriculture.
