Abstract:
The disclosed apparatus, systems and methods relate to determining cross track error between a stored planted location and the actual physical location of plants. An array of active light sensors is mounted on a vehicle for travel above the plants. The array of active light sensors generate an electrical signal from each sensor corresponding to the reflected light from the sensor. A computer system generates a reflectance curve from the array of sensors to determine the location of a plant below the array of sensors and also generates the cross track error.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for determining cross track error, comprising:\n a. at least one active light sensor array suspended on a vehicle; and b. a computer system comprising a processor in operational communication with the at least one active light sensor array, wherein the processor is configured to:\n i. establish an actual plant position from the at least one active light sensor array, and \n ii. compare the actual plant position with a stored plant position to determine cross-track error.
