Intelligent Itinerant Robot [IIR] for Agricultural Farm Monitoring using IoT

摘要

Agriculture plays a vital role in India’s economy. Nearly 60% of our country’s population hinge on agriculture and its by-products for its source of revenue. Hence proper maintenance of agricultural farm plays a pivotal role. Many on field sensor monitorization techniques has been implemented previously and it has produced incredible results in crop cultivation and farm maintenance. The performance or lifetime of the on-field sensors may get abridged due to various environmental factors and human intervention. Hence, we propose an Intelligent Itinerant robot is introduced here to monitor the various agricultural field parameters remotely on demand basis which completely removes the concept ofon-field sensor fixation strategy. Moreover, the farmers can water the agricultural field remotely using a mobile application after the monitoring the humidity, temperature, soil moisture and soil pH values. This reduces the human workload to a huge extent and it also helps in improving the lifetime and performance of the sensors.
