Abstract:Traditional large-scale chemical weeding causes pesticide waste and intensifying environmental pollution, while non-precision mechanical weeding is plagued by defects, including high seedling injury rate and low operation efficiency. Intelligent precision targeted weeding technologies, represented by image recognition-based laser weeding, have thus become a critical pathway for realizing green and sustainable agricultural development. It expounded the "perception-control-actuation" working mechanism and core modules of relevant technologies, and an in-depth analysis of key technical links covering weed identification, weed positioning, targeted control and end-effector actuation was conducted, with reference to the latest domestic and overseas research progress and typical equipment cases. Research findings indicated that high-precision visual perception and intelligent decision-making algorithms supported accurate weed identification and positioning;end effectors of laser, mechanical or spraying types can complete high-efficiency targeted operations. This technical framework can significantly reduce herbicide reliance, lower accidental crop damage, and enhance the economic and ecological benefits of farmland. Nevertheless, the technology was still confronted with challenges such as lagged R&D of dedicated components, deficient anti-interference capacity and insufficient depth of information fusion, high equipment costs, and singular technical routes, which constrained its large-scale application. Furthermore, it clarified priority breakthrough directions for future research, including dedicated component design, system robustness improvement, in-depth multi-technology integration, and expansion of emerging application scenarios, to drive the industrialization of intelligent precision targeted weeding.
