Automatic Weed Detection and Removal Robot
Project Area of Specialization Mechanical EngineeringProject SummaryA weed plant can be described as a plant that is unwanted at a specific location at a given time. Farmers have fought against the weed populations for as long as land has been used for food production. In conventional agriculture this weed control contributes a considerable amount to the overall cost of the produce. Automatic weed detection is one of the viable solutions for efficient reduction or exclusion of chemicals in crop production. Research studies have been focusing and combining modern approaches and proposed techniques which automatically analyze and evaluate segmented weed images. Hence we are creating an cost effective autonomous agricultural robot which would prove fruitful in agriculture lands
Project ObjectivesOur goal is to design a robot that automatically detects ans pluck weed from wheat field with the help of gripper
