IoT based Agribot for Irrigation and Farm Monitoring

摘要

Agriculture plays a major role in India's GDP (Gross Domestic Product). The major problems in modern agriculture are water scarcity and high labour costs. This project reduces the working cost, digging, seed sowing operation and also the labour cost. The Agribot is progressed by using an Arduino board. During operation of irrigation the Agribot senses the soil moisture content and it moves along a predetermined path, starts digging and seed sowing operation and covers the ground by closing it. The Proposed system aims at designing multipurpose autonomous agricultural robotic vehicles which can be controlled through IoT for digging the soil & sowing the seed. Agribot transmits data collected from multiple sensors to remote servers using Wi-Fi links. Optical compass Sensor and Digital Compass Sensor are used with the help of Wi-Fi interface operated on Android Application to manoeuvre robots in the field. The paper the complete installation of the agribot
