While probably not the level of quality needed for a decent AI-enabled ag device, I'm fairly confident hardware barriers will continue to fall.
AI code editors will slowly erode software moats, leaving data one of the few remaining barriers that can't be AI-ed away.

Exciting times! We have just ordered our @GRYFN_IO Gobi for the @Sydney_CRF @AustPlantPhenom node 🌾🌿
Please get in touch to learn how we can support your research with drone-based hyperspec, LiDAR and high res RGB imaging with sub-cm GPS accuracy and precision.
APPN is delighted to partner with @GRYFN_IO to deploy the GOBI sensor across Australia. It will bring a new level of sensor resolution, integration & positioning. We're expecting heavy demand for this best-in-class capability. @AustplantPhenom #NCRISImpact

Started in a pandemic and ended in chemo, but this PhD has been such an incredible experience @SiaSydney.
Challenging but very rewarding, I'm very grateful for everyone that's helped along the way.

It's a DIY, open source weed detection system. It's all out in the open with off the shelf parts, so it's low cost and repairable, adaptable too.
I've just started selling kits for them, but the full parts list/instructions/code is accessible here:

New review on "Unsaturation in the air spaces of leaves and its implications" in @PlantCellEnvir. In Cernusak et al., we review the evidence that refutes the assumption of universal, near saturation of air spaces in leaves.
