The #OpenSpotSprayer is a low cost, opensource and simple approach to weed detection. It uses off the shelf items and simple colour-based code to pick out green weeds. Here it is mounted on the Digital Farm Hand robot @pbinarrabri.

Full code and guide released soon.

Watch this space for detailed instructions, code and (hopefully) a paper.
