The goal of the project is.................................

=Problem Definition= The Palouse farming region is characterized as having rich, fertile soil and rolling hills. The geography of the Palouse presents a unique challenge to optimize effective cultivation and preservation of the region’s landscape. Precision Agriculture utilizes emerging technologies to optimize farming practices in the Palouse for better crop yield and responsible land management.

The focus of our project is to create Virtual Reality Simulation to be used as a tool in the classroom for students to learn and practice Precision Agriculture techniques in a safe, cost effective and engaging learning environment.

Deliverables
For this project we have tasked to create a virtual reality environment that replicates the Cook Farm. We have been provided with the Cook Farm elevation data for it to be translated into our application.

The simulation is to provide the students with experience driving a tractor with an attached sprayer boom used to apply chemical to the field. The tractor is to be equipped with GPS location controls which have the ability to map where the spray has been applied to field.

For classroom use, the simulation should have an autopilot or demonstration mode so that students can learn the optimal application techniques and pathing before practicing on their own.

A data collecting tool should also be developed to provide students with feedback as to how their experience compared to the optimal application. The optimal application would have the greatest fuel and spray efficiency.

The Virtual Reality Simulation will eventual be utilized by 4-6 classroom laboratory workstations. The hardware and software need to be able to replicated and installed.
