Robot Farming System Using Multiple Robot Tractors in Japan

Abstract

The objective of the research is to develop a robot farming system using multiple robots. The research will discuss the application of multiple robots in Japan agriculture for rice, wheat and soybean. The robot farming system includes a rice planting robot, a seeding robot, a robot tractor, a combine robot harvester and various implements attached on the robot tractor. One of the key elements of the robot farming system is that it should be more economical to the farmers. The important parts of the farming system are the robot management system, low-cost system, robot farming safety, and real-time monitoring/documentation.
