AI Integration Components

1. OpenAI Vision Integration

Purpose: Real-time crop disease detection using GPT-4o vision capabilities

Flow:

  1. User uploads crop image through React frontend
  2. Image stored in Supabase Storage
  3. Edge function calls OpenAI Vision API with specialized agricultural prompt
