This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18366611 titled 'VEHICLE

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a vehicle equipped with a system for spraying agrochemicals on objects to be controlled, such as crops. The system includes a camera to capture images of the object, a control device to analyze the images and determine if spraying is necessary, and a spraying device to apply the agrochemical when needed.

* Vehicle designed for spraying agrochemicals on objects to be controlled.
* Includes a camera to take photos of the object around the vehicle.
* Control device analyzes images to decide if agrochemical needs to be sprayed.
* Spraying device applies agrochemical when determined necessary.
* Camera captures images from bottom to top of object in a vertical direction.

### Potential Applications

- Pest control in forestry to selectively treat infested areas.
- Landscaping for precise application of fertilizers and herbicides.

### Problems Solved
- Reduces overuse of agrochemicals by targeting specific areas.
- Minimizes environmental impact by avoiding unnecessary spraying.
- Improves efficiency by automating decision-making process.

### Benefits
- Increased crop yield through targeted application of agrochemicals.
- Cost savings by reducing wastage of agrochemicals.
- Environmental protection by minimizing chemical runoff.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A vehicle for spraying an agrochemical to an object to be controlled. The vehicle includes: a photographing device configured to photograph the object around the vehicle; a control device configured to make a determination as to whether or not the agrochemical needs to sprayed to the object, based on an image of the object acquired when the object was photographed; and a spraying device configured to spray the agrochemical to the object when determining that the agrochemical needs to be sprayed to the object. The photographing device is configured to photograph the object from a lower end of the object to an upper end of the object in a vertical direction of the object.
