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, at least, detecting an optical sight to align with an associated agricultural object, tracking the agricultural objects relative to the optical sight, predicting a parameter to track in association with agricultural object, and activating an emitter to apply an action based on the parameter.
