Integrated pest management researchers at New Mexico State University are adapting the concept by using specialized cameras on drones to locate plants suffering from stress.
“With the use of a multispectral camera, we are collecting red and near-infrared spectral bands,” said Ashley Bennett, urban IPM specialist with the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences. “From these bands we can calculate a plant stress metric called normalized difference vegetation index.”
Ashley Bennett, New Mexico State University urban farm integrated pest management specialist, lands a drone during a multispectral photography study of plants to determine if the plants are under stress from insects, disease or drought.
NDVI ranges from negative one to one. The greener the plant is, the healthier it is and the closer the NDVI value is to one. The more a plant is stressed the closer the value is to negative one. Image..

Continue readingAs revolutions go, Ran Krauss wasn’t satisfied that drones were going far enough, fast enough. While the tiny flying machines offered potentially transformative services, Krauss figured drones would never reach their full potential as long as human operators were needed.
That philosophy led to the founding of Airobotics in 2014. The company has developed a pilotless drone that self-deploys, using robotics to handle chores like changing the battery and various components. No human intervention is needed.
The result is a robotic drone whose popularity is soaring so quickly that the company’s biggest challenge is making them fast enough to fulfill demand. As its next step toward expanding its research, development, and manufacturing, Airobotics announced today the opening of its U.S. headquarters in Scottsdale, Arizona.
“The idea for us when we started Airobotics was to pull the pilot out of the loop,” Krauss said. “It’s the most expensive part of the operations. That’s clear when you’..

Europe’s deadly silence on armed drones

As EU member states rush to weaponize unmanned planes, those who monitor ‘collateral damage’ to civilian populations and abuses of international law brought about by extensive use of armed drones ask EU countries, as MEPs recently did, to set up a legal framework and to uphold human rights.

The recent unveiling of a new CIA drone base in Niger has put the US targeted killing program in the international spotlight again. President Trump’s reversal of the slightly improved policies made by his predecessor Barack Obama on transparency and accountability gives more cause for concern in the years to come.
With looming conflict-theatres on the horizon, it is of paramount importance that EU Member States and the European Union speak out on these lethal policies and push back against further attempts to undermine international legal pr..
