A system for detecting the operating condition of components of an implement may include an implement, a first sensor comprising one of an acoustic sensor or a vision-based sensor, a second sensor comprising the other of the acoustic sensor or the vision-based sensor, and a controller communicatively coupled to the first and second sensors. The controller may receive performance data from the first sensor indicative of a performance of the implement. The controller may further monitor the performance data received from the first sensor and identify an area of interest relative to the implement. Additionally, the controller may control an operation of the second sensor to collect component data indicative of an operating condition of at least one component of the implement located within the area of interest.

A method includes: at an autonomous vehicle and during a first operating period, capturing a first set of images of a plant; calculating a location of the plant based on the first set of images; extracting an initial value of a plant metric of the plant based on the first set of images; predicting a predicted value of the plant metric of the plant at a time based on the initial value of the plant metric of the plant and a set of global condition data. The method also includes, at the autonomous vehicle and during a second operating period concurrent with the time: capturing a second set of images of the plant; identifying the plant based on the second set of images and the location of the plant; and executing an agricultural operation on the plant based on the predicted value of the plant metric.

A method includes: at an autonomous vehicle and during a first operating period, capturing a first set of images of a plant; calculating a location of the plant based on the first set of images; extracting an initial value of a plant metric of the plant based on the first set of images; predicting a time series of the plant metric of the plant based on the plant profile of the plant and a set of global condition data.
