Precision
                        farming is the use of unmanned, autonomous vehicles in
                    farming. The purpose of this project is to focus on capacity
                    building
                    research that would facilitate the development of an intelligent
                    ground vehicle capable of autonomously navigating in a field
                    for a variety of tasks (e.g. pesticide application, plowing,
                    irrigation, harvesting, etc.). This project has received
                    CSU 
                    Agricultural Research Initiative (ARI) funding on the condition
                    that the proponents acquire industrial partners.
