SymphonyVision Duo | Vision-Based Spot Spraying

Product Description

Target Weeds, Not Crops: The Future of Precision Application

In a world of rising chemical costs and tightening environmental regulations, “blanket spraying” is becoming a thing of the past. SymphonyVision™ Duo is the next evolution in sprayer technology, utilising high-speed cameras and artificial intelligence to identify weeds and apply herbicide only where it is needed.

By integrating seamlessly with your SymphonyNozzle™ system, SymphonyVision Duo allows for real-time, nozzle-by-nozzle control. Whether you are clearing stubble or treating a standing crop, this system ensures you hit the target with surgical precision while drastically reducing your total chemical usage.

How SymphonyVision™ Duo Works

The “Duo” system uses a dual-camera architecture to provide 100% field coverage and rapid-fire decision-making:

1. Advanced Weed Detection

Mounted every 10 to 15 feet along the boom, the SymphonyVision cameras scan the ground ahead. Using powerful on-board AI, the system distinguishes between the crop and the weeds (Green-on-Green) or spots weeds against bare soil (Green-on-Brown).

2. Nozzle-by-Nozzle Precision

Unlike other systems that trigger sections, SymphonyVision works in perfect harmony with SymphonyNozzle PWM. When a weed is detected, only the specific nozzle required is activated. This ensures the correct dose is applied at exactly the right moment, even at high operating speeds.

3. Dual Application Modes

• Spot Spraying: The system only sprays when a weed is detected. This is ideal for pre-emergence work or cleaning up “escapes” in high-value crops.

• Dual-Rate Spraying: Apply a low “blanket” dose across the whole field while automatically increasing the rate to a “knock-down” dose when the cameras detect a weed patch.

Why Invest in Vision Technology?

Massive Chemical Savings

By only targeting weeds, growers have seen chemical reductions of up to 70-90% in specific applications. These savings mean the system can often pay for itself in a single season on large-scale tillage farms.

Manage Herbicide Resistance

SymphonyVision allows you to use more effective (and often more expensive) chemistry in a targeted way, helping to manage resistant blackgrass or brome without the prohibitive cost of blanket application.

See the Results in Real-Time

Managed through the Gen 3 20|20® Monitor, you get a live map of weed pressure across your fields. This data isn’t just for today; it helps you track weed infestations and plan your agronomy for years to come.
