Autonomous Agri-bot
Project Area of Specialization RoboticsProject SummaryThe agriculture industry is an energy-intensive industry. Agriculture system required a lot of water with proper planning. In third world countries, a lot of water is wastage in the agriculture system. To make agriculture efficient there was a need for Robots in agriculture. Robots will help to increase the productivity of farming in a more sustainable and environmentally compatible way. Therefore this project has its own importance in farming to address the wastage issue that needs serious considerations.
Project ObjectivesWe designed a project that can fulfill the following objectives:
-Increase the efficiency of production
-Reduce wastage of Land, Water, Seed, etc.
-Make agriculture smart
-Automize and robotize the Agri-food industry
-Make farm labor inexpensive.
Project Implementation MethodThe Robot that we are presuming to design will have mobility and functionality dependent on its legs that resembles a hexapod. Legs are segmented into three parts:
1. Tibia (lowest)
2. Femur (upper)
3. Coxa (Joint with main body)
The functions carried out by the robot are three in :
-Ploughing: This function involves the digging of soil.
-Seeding: This function involves the seed to be dropped on the soil and a flapper attached at its tibia will even the surface of the ground.
-Watering: This phase involves the watering of land after the seed is dropped.
-Live Monitoring: It allows the monitoring of the seed.
Benefits of the ProjectSome benefits of agri-bot are the following:
-Provide the required amount of water
-Provide live monitoring through the application
-Protecting people from the harmful effects of pesticides
-Reduce the wastage of seeds
-Human-friendly
Technical Details of Final DeliverableTechnical details of Agri-bot involves
-Mechanisms of seeder, tank, and digger are implanted on the body
-Test bed for the final testing of all the mechanisms
-Live monitoring using mobile application
