Summary: | A sprayer nozzle assembly control system includes a modulating nozzle assembly having a control valve and a spray tip. At least one spray modulation actuator is included with one or both of the control valve or the spray tip, and the spray modulation actuator is configured to control an actual spray profile of a sprayed agricultural product. A spray sensor is configured to monitor the actual spray profile of the spray tip and is in communication with the spray sensor. The nozzle assembly controller controls the actual spray profile and includes a comparator to compare the actual spray profile with a specified spray profile and generate a spray profile deviation. The nozzle assembly controller includes a spray modulation interface in communication with the at least one spray modulation actuator, and the spray modulation interface directs actuation of the at least one spray modulation actuator to modulate the actual spray profile. |
