Drones with Multispectral Cameras Bring Efficiency to High-Throughput Plant Phenotyping

An excellent article by BioPhotonics  James Schlett, discussing the applications and challenges associated with UAV/UAS mounted hyperspectral imaging, with valuable input from our partner Igno Breukers at Quest Innovations .

“Drone-supported multispectral imaging can help break the ‘phenotyping bottleneck’ and enable plant breeders to grow the most drought-tolerant, disease-resistant and highest-yielding genetically enhanced crops. However, shortcomings in aerial multispectral imaging technology must be overcome before it can help breeders grow the perfect plant.”
