Abstract:
An apparatus for weed control includes a processing unit that receives at least one image of an environment. The processing unit analyses the at least one image to determine at least one mode of operation of a vegetation control technology from a plurality of modes of operation of the vegetation control technology to be used for weed control for at least a first part of the environment. An output unit outputs information that is useable to activate the vegetation control technology in the at least one mode of operation.
