Client Requirement

Our Client wanted a fast and reliable application to count corn seeds and to eliminate the manual and conventional way which is tedious and time-consuming.

Feathersoft Solution

Feathersoft assisted Our Client to overcome critical concerns, reducing time and effort, and maximizing output. A machine learning model was introduced using cutting-edge technologies to accurately detect individual corn seeds.

• A reliable and quick iOS application was developed to detect seed trait data from the image of the corn.
•  With the help of deep learning techniques, we detected every single corn seed on one side of the corn and then calculated the whole seed count in that entire corn.
• A decisive platform was developed that could collect seed trait data at any location without any prior experience.

Key Challenges

• Building the perfect dataset for training the models
• Training and checking different machine learning models for better, decisive results.
• Training the model by changing image resolutions to achieve accuracy.

Impact on business

• Superb convenience: An iOS device with a stable internet will do the challenging job of counting seed trait data which was otherwise a very cumbersome and manual activity.
• Massive productivity gain: what was a very time-consuming and tedious job, can now be done within seconds and without the help of any professionals.
