AIRM Consulting Ltd.

Published purpose

Farmers and agronomists spend substantial time travelling to each field to monitor plant health, disease, and the environment. AIRM Consulting is developing an innovative artificial intelligence-driven device for sensor-based 3D autonomous ground-truthing that integrates light detection and ranging (lidar) and multi-spectral sensors. Computer vision and machine learning are used to provide a real-time solution that is scalable, mobile, and optimized leading to novel quantitative data and crop monitoring, driving adoption of precision agriculture-based technologies with applications to decision support and insurance. This new technological solution will overcome hurdles pertaining to cost, scale/range, image quality, computational intensity and seamless interoperability.
