What is PlanSens?
PlanSens is a new plant detection sensor sensor developed by Optronia GmbH.
It’s an optical sensors able to detect and identify the plants both horizontally (for crops) and vertically (for orchards and vineyards) .
The technology is not based on camera but is a multispectral sensor that works in the range of infrared non visible frequencies.
We developed all the technology on our own without using any external components. Optics, electronics, embedded software and the design of the sensors are all developed internally by the team of Optronia in Innsbruck.
Automatic dosing
Automatic control of volume and distribution points according to the characteristics of the vegetation
Data collection
Tracking plant activity to create data for optimization.
Accuracy and speed
High independence due to the speed of up to 25 km/h and advanced optics, which allow achieving high robustness to changes in the measurement distance.
Spot spraying
Herbicide control for increased productivity and reduction of cost
Sunlight independence
Advanced design of the measuring chain allows using sensors day irrespective of the time of day or at night
Plug and Play solution
Frees from pre-scanning the field, uploading data to a database, selecting specific crops. Easy to use.
