Cluster-Based Flight Path Construction for Drone-Assisted Pear Pollination Using RGB-D Image Processing by Arata Kuwahara, Tomotaka Kimura, Sota Okubo, Rion Yoshioka, Keita Endo, Hiroyuki Shimizu, Tomohito Shimada, Chisa Suzuki, Yoshihiro Takemura, Takefumi Hiraguri

“…Flower detection is performed using a YOLO (You Only Look Once)-based object detection algorithm, and three-dimensional flower positions are estimated by integrating depth information with the drone’s positional and orientation data in the east-north-up coordinate system. To enhance pollination efficiency, the method applies the OPTICS (Ordering Points To Identify the Clustering Structure) algorithm to group detected flowers based on spatial proximity that correspond to branch-level distributions. …”
