Virtual reality

Virtual reality overlays digital information in real time using devices, improving efficiency. In agriculture, it benefits productivity and water management, allowing precise measurements, crop analysis, water flows and irrigation optimization.

Virtual reality involves taking digital or computer-generated information, whether in images, video or tactile sensations, and overlaying them on an environment in real time through technological devices. A mixed reality is generated in real time that allows us to make decisions or actions instantly to achieve greater effectiveness in the activities of the area where it is used. This technology is being complemented by technological advances such as drones, big data, the cloud, to establish data and information flows. In the case of agriculture, it can help improve productivity by using it in activities such as more precise measurements, programming operations and developing scientific analysis to increase harvests. Regarding water for agriculture, virtual reality can work to observe moisture content and water stress in crops, water evaporation, surface and groundwater flows, irrigation optimization, water quality analysis, among others.
