CORN HEADER WITH ENHANCED YIELD MAPPING RESOLUTION

Abstract: a yield system for a corn header includes a terahertz detection subsystem. the terahertz detection subsystem includes a plurality of terahertz sources configured to be disposed on a respective plurality of row units of the corn header, a plurality of terahertz cameras configured to be disposed on the respective plurality of row units of the corn header, and a control system. the control system includes a memory configured to store instructions and one or more processors. the control system receives the signal from each terahertz camera of the plurality of terahertz and determines a size and a density of the agricultural product at each row unit of the plurality of row units based on the respective image. the control system also determines a relative yield of the agricultural product at each row unit of the plurality of row units.
