Sunflower seeds, one of the main oilseeds produced around the world, are widely used in the food industry. Mixtures of seed varieties can occur throughout the supply chain. Intermediaries and the food industry need to identify the varieties to produce high-quality products. Considering that high oleic oilseed varieties are similar, a computer-based...

Sistema de asistencia al conductor y métodos de adquisición y procesado de datos asociados. La presente invención se refiere a un sistema y procedimientos asociados para obtener datos y almacenar, procesar y presentar a l usuario de la invención información útil, relacionada con el estado del vehículo así como ofrecer servicios de aviso de emergenc...

The cost of current flow rate measurement devices is quite high compared to the cost of low-end microphones. This circumstance, together with the fact that common agricultural sprayers have more than 50 nozzles, makes the use of current flow rate measurement devices cost-prohibitive. That considered, this article examines, by proposing one particul...

Accurate car positioning on the Earth's surface is a requirement for many state-of-the-art automotive applications, but current low-cost Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers can suffer from poor precision and transient unavailability in urban areas. In this article, a real-time data fusion system of absolute and relative positioning...

This article proposes (i) the estimation method of an expert system to predict the statuses of several agro-industrial machine rotary components by using a vibration signal acquired from a single point of the machine; and, (ii) a learning method to fit the estimation method. Both methods were evaluated in an agricultural harvester. Vibration signal...

The goal of this article is to assess the feasibility of estimating the state of various rotating components in agro-industrial machinery by employing just one vibration signal acquired from a single point on the machine chassis. To do so, a Support Vector Machine (SVM)-based system is employed. Experimental tests evaluated this system by acquiring...

Low-cost GPS receivers provide geodetic positioning information using the NMEA protocol, usually with eight digits for latitude and nine digits for longitude. When these geodetic coordinates are converted into Cartesian coordinates, the positions fit in a quantization grid of some decimeters in size, the dimensions of which vary depending on the po...
