Image recognition is responsible for developing the image processing to recognize crops and weeds from live camera footage.

Currently, image recognition uses tensor flow object identification for training and tuning models for recognition.

If you are an individual interested in machine learning and image processing, image recognition is the team for you!

Apply by Sept 15th!
