Design and Implementation of Remote Sensing Robotic Platform for Precision Agriculture

Abstract

Smart agriculture plays a vital role in counties economy and development. Automation in the field of agriculture has led to the usage of autonomous robots for many field applications. In this scenario, remote monitoring of various field parameters are highly imperative for increased productivity. In order to demonstrate the usage of robots in agriculture, environmental monitoring robot was designed in this work. The first part was designed to collect soil moisture and temperature data from farm land and secondly to aggregate the data from the sensors. Finally, the data from the sensors will stored in the cloud for further processing and decision making for controlling actuator part. Overall system can increase the crop productivity and reduce the wastage of resources.
