Un aspect de l'invention concerne un système comprenant des buses disposées le long d'un outil, une caméra disposée sur l'outil pour capturer des images d'une pulvérisation à partir d'une buse parmi les buses sur une période et un processeur pour attribuer une évaluation aux images pour tenir compte du fait que la buse est éteinte par intermittence et ne pas considérer la buse comme bouchée. Le processeur détermine une moyenne glissante pour un état de la buse à l'aide de l’évaluation attribuée pour les images.
