On Saturday , April 6 , a drone flew over the gerberas in the Zuidplaspolder during the Kom in Kas ( chaffer the Greenhouse ) event . Florinco and Royal Brinkman showcased the capableness of self-governing drone flights in greenhouses at Gerbera United in Nootdorp . The purpose of these bourdon flights is to gather up aeriform imagination . The drone conquer imaging utilized to originate AI models to make prognostication about harvests , for case .
A drone in the nursery , for many in the horticulture sphere means innovation and growing , yet for a few agriculturist , it has become a reality . How fascinating it would be if a laggard could flee above the crops , providing growers with penetration from above at all times . This has recently become a reality at Gerbera United in Nootdorp . Florinco , in collaboration with Royal Brinkman , is testing and evolve their autonomous drone here .
Drone in the greenhouseWith the autonomous drone , it ’s possible to mechanically collect datum with a camera above the crop . The imagery collected by the drone is used to realize insights into craw growth but also to observe diseases and pests early and on a larger graduated table . Once the flight is concluded , the drone return to the so - called dock station to transmit the mental imagery and recharge for the next flight .
From data to valueThe systematic compendium of imaging add note value . This value increases when the collected information from the mental imagery can be convert into actionable insights . It ’s important to be able to consider the crops , but this importance escalate when artificial intelligence can be employ to analyze this data . This is also workable with the trailer solution , where flowers can be weigh , analysis of plant growth can be made , and locations of diseases and cuss can be detected and signal . So , the grower receives relevant data , saving time and providing sooner and more accurate insights .
CollaborationRoyal Brinkman recognizes the importance of converting data into value and has introduce into a collaboration with Florinco to further heighten and commercialize this solution . Koen Bol , innovation specialist at Royal Brinkman , states : " An autonomous bourdon is a significant data point collection proficiency that suit within Royal Brinkman ’s strategy . This bring home the bacon the grower with even more data to optimize the cultivation procedure . "

Kom in de KasOn Saturday , April 6 , 2024 , from 10:00 AM to 5:00 necropsy , the dawdler was be visible to the universal public at Gerbera United in Nootdorp during Kom in de Kas . Florinco has put through one of the first drone implementations here .
