An eye-tracking method includes enabling at least one light source of an array of light sources to emit non-visible light to illuminate an eye. The method also includes obtaining at least one image of the eye while the at least one light source is enabled. A position of the eye may then be determined based on a position of the at least one light source within the array of light sources in response to determining that the at least one image indicates a bright pupil condition when the at least one light source was enabled.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING RESIDUE COVERAGE WITHIN A FIELD BASED ON PRE-HARVEST IMAGE DATA

A method for determining residue coverage within a field may include receiving, with one or more computing devices, first and second images of the field. The first image may depict a portion of the field at a first time during a crop-growing period and the second image may depict the portion of the field at a second time during the crop-growing period, with the first and second times being different. Furthermore, the method may include generating, with the one or more computing devices, an estimated residue coverage map for the field based on the received first and second images. Additionally, the method may include generating, with the one or more computing devices, a prescription map for the field based on the estimated residue coverage map.
