Abstract

Various embodiments relate generally to computer vision and automation to autonomously identify and deliver for application a treatment to an object among other objects, data science and data analysis, including machine learning, deep learning, and other disciplines of computer-based artificial intelligence to facilitate identification and treatment of objects, and robotics and mobility technologies to navigate a delivery system, more specifically, to an agricultural delivery system configured to identify and apply, for example, an agricultural treatment to an identified agricultural object. In some examples, a method may include receiving data representing an image, detecting a portion of the image associated with a unit of spatial translation relative to a reference, identifying a subset of pixels to be formed on the surface, and causing emission of a subset of pixel projectiles directed to impact a portion of a surface to form a replica of a portion of the image.
