Abstract


Conventional weed control system is usually used by spraying herbicides uniformly throughout the land. Excessive use of herbicides on an ongoing basis can produce chemical waste that is harmful to plants and soil. The application of precision agriculture farming in the detection process in order to control weeds using Computer Vision On Farm becomes interesting, but it still has some problems due to computer size and power consumption. Raspberry Pi is one of the minicomputer with low price and low power consumption. Having computing like a desktop computer with the open source Linux operating system can be used for image processing and weed fractal dimension processing using OpenCV library and C programming. This research results the best fractal computation time when performing the image with dimension size of 128 x 128 pixels. It is about 7 milliseconds. Furthermore, the average speed ratio between personal computer and Raspberry Pi is 0.04 times faster. The use of Raspberry Pi is cost and power consumption efficient compared to personal computer.
