Development of a three dimensional system for detection an innovative mechanism for destroying weeds, in the cooperation with Warsaw University of Technology.
The project aims at the development of an innovative product - the Three Dimensional Detection and Decision System (Trójwymiarowy System Detekcyjno-Decyzyjny - TSDD) and of a robotic machine facilitating agricultural production. TSDD implemented in a robotic machine for the agricultural production will enable the use of image digital analysis, concerns also development of advanced algorithms for work tool control, using, inter alia, the result of video sygnal processing as an input data. Stakeholders consist mainly of farmers. The target product in which TSDD will be implemented are agricultural machines, especially those used for weed control of:
row crops of berries, strawberries, row crops of vegetables, corn crops in the early stages of vegetation, tree and bush nurseries.
mplementation of good practice has an impact on regional innovation policy and regional development by:
- commercialization of results of R+D works
- increase in revenues from the sale of new technologies
- increase in sales of new or significantly improved products
- increasing and strengthening cooperation in innovation development processes by developing forms of cooperation in the business-science-environment relation,increasing the activeness of business entities
The problem is the commercialization of solutions based on reports on remarks on competitive competition in this respect.

Resources needed

Smart Growth Operational Programme 2014-2020 - Submeasure 1.1.1 Industrial research and development works conducted by enterprises
Fund: PLN 2 876 460,99

Evidence of success

It responds to the widespread problem of limited human resources in the agriculture sector, leading to automating the processes that require significant workload. The project is implemented in the cooperation with Warsaw University of Technology. It should also be emphasized that the effects of applying good practice may be visible in the development of other industries, because it is possible to adapt the system to other market needs.

Difficulties encountered

Increasing interest in the implementation of new solutions by farmers

Potential for learning or transfer

Implementation of good practice has an impact on regional innovation policy and regional development by:
- commercialization of results of R+D works
- increase in revenues from the sale of new technologies
- increase in sales of new or significantly improved products
- increasing and strengthening cooperation in innovation development processes by developing forms of cooperation in the business-science-environment relation, increasing the activeness of business entities, and intensifying scientific research works, results of which correspond to the needs of entrepreneurs.
- increasing the internationalisation focused on development of innovation in Mazowieckie Voivodeship by increasing the activity of entrepreneurs on the international arena and increasing the number of international research and development projects.
- increasing effectiveness of support and financing of pro-innovation activities in the region by supporting entrepreneurs.
