“The collaboration between Canon Virginia, IALR, and Virginia Tech is important to CVI to advance the development of a plant monitoring system to be used by the growers in all areas of agriculture. Over time, these images will provide insight on diseases, their symptoms and assist growers with identification and remedial possibilities. Canon imaging technologies will then capture images of the plant’s progression and the effects of the anomalies on plant health. The protocol involves introducing anomalies to healthy plants that will ultimately affect the health of the plant. The purpose of the research is to help discover symptoms of diseases at an early state and identify plant health to growers. The collaboration began in March 2022 and the project is set to continue for two years. “We look forward to working alongside Canon along with our other exceptional partner on the Controlled Environment Agriculture Innovation Center, the School of Plant and Environmental Sciences at the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Virginia Tech.“ Scott Lowman, Vice President, Applied Research. has long been a pioneer in imaging technology, so to add their expertise and first-rate technology to our research efforts is not only an honor but will further enhance our innovation and leadership in controlled environment agriculture studies,” said Dr. CVI is using their patent-pending imaging technology to monitor plant anomalies and external factors that can inhibit plant life such as pests, disease and temperature. (CVI) is pleased to announce a collaboration with the Institute for Advanced Learning and Research (IALR), a local research facility and political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia located in Danville, Virginia, who has engaged a representative from Virginia Tech’s School of Plant and Environmental Sciences to assist in an agricultural project to monitor plant health. This powerful, industry-tested platform for 3D simulation modules in automation technology allows trainees to work in groups to program and simulate models using real programming languages and then use these in the hardware environment provided.Canon Virginia, Inc. Robotino is a universal, highly-flexible logistics component which is used for internal transport functions within the CP Factory.
