Abstract

The issues of inadequate digital proficiency among agricultural practitioners and the suboptimal image quality captured using mobile smart devices have been addressed by providing appropriate guidance to photographers to properly position their mobile devices during image capture. An application for crop guidance photography was developed, which involved classifying and identifying crops from various orientations and providing guidance prompts. Three steps were executed, including increasing sample randomness, model pruning, and knowledge distillation, to improve the MobileNet model for constructing a smartphone-based orientation detection model with high accuracy and low computational requirements. Subsequently, the application was realized by utilizing the classification results for guidance prompts. The test demonstrated that this method effectively and seamlessly guided agricultural practitioners in capturing high-quality crop images, providing effective photographic guidance for farmers.
