3D Locating System for Pests’ Laser Control Based on Multi-Constraint Stereo Matching

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

I suggest minor improvement in language. If possible reduce the number of figures because too many figures will not exactly convey the message to the audience. Figure 17 and Figure can be combined and presented as table (mean and SE).

Reviewer 3 Report

We congratulate the authors for their paper. The paper is well structured and we only recommend:

1) Mention the scientific name of the pest insect for the first time in the following form:

Pieris rapae (L.) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae)

Subsequently, it can be cited in summary form:

P. rapae

2) Restructure figures 5, 11 and 19 in order to improve the visualization of the tags.
