Farm bot
Project Area of Specialization RoboticsProject SummaryWe are creating a robot that will farm the land automatically or by control of the farmer via a Bluetooth module it will dig the land, plant seed and water the planted land. The purpose of this vehicle to farm the land and the primary focus of this project is to save cost of labor. This machine/vehicle named Farm Bot to facilitate the farmer in farming the land. It will dig plant and water the land. While farmer can spend his time and money on other thing rather than on farming the land himself. And his job will bear taken care by our Farm Bot. Our Product is major focused on Robotics and Agriculture Area by using Mobile Application Controller so Mobile Application Is also major Concern. We are Using Android App Inventor for Making the Interface Of Mobile Application Controller. We have done a survey the machine/vehicle we are going to make is some how similar to our project. We search these Keywords To make it our Plan Simpler or Easier way {Fertilizers , Farm , Farming , Vehicles types , Bot , Farming Bot, Farming drones etc}. The end product will be an Automation/Robotics System which will work in the Farms Or In the Fertilization Industries Which Will help To Produce the Fertilizers or Manufacturing the Plant’s with the help of its Mechanism.
Project ObjectivesThe core objective of this machine/vehicle named Farm Bot to facilitate the farmer in farming the land. It will dig plant, drop seed and water the land. While Owner of farmer spend his time and money on other thing rather than on farming the land with the help of this product and his job will bear taken care by our Farm Bot. Technology has made many tasks easier beyond imagination. And in agriculture farming is a very difficult task and lots of labor to farming land and watering is a very hectic task for farmer. farmer have to dig the ground, farm the seed then water it and look after it and it is a time consuming and lots of labor require. Whereas technology can help in this regards through technology we can make a vehicle that will done the job. It will take care of farmer’s job to plant seed water it by it sell or control by the farmer. It will surely be a product that will help the farmer in saving time and energy they serve in planting seed water it and looking forward to it. According to the Current Affair Every Ministry Talks about the Farmers and Fertiliztion Industries In pakistan should be better as soon as possible so we are working on that purpose. The thing which motivate us to make this system is the emerging era, where everything is just growing with technologies. So make the product will be much helpful for Fertilization industries to produce Fertilizers of plants with the help this Automation or Robotics System.
Project Implementation MethodThe design of Farm Bot is used as a vehicle bot for farming including 4 tyres with the help of DC motors connect with the Arduino to move the vehicle through the incoming commands from the mobile application and Watering , Seeder , Plaughig mechanism also connected with the DC motors connected with the arduino for accessing from the mobile application thourgh bluetooth module connected on the machine. The basic challenge and attribute of one way communication between machine and mobile application for accessing the farm bot through bluetooth module and mobile’s bluetooth for accessing all the machine’s feature through connected with mobile application with the help of transfering the commands.
- Forward Signals with the Help Of Mobile App Controller Through bluetooth Module.
- Vehicle Moving Singanls , Water Pump Signals , Plaughing Signals/commands.
-
Arduino Connected with Bluetooth module for accessing the arduino code and mobile application commands at one time.
The Machine will dig/Plauging, drop seeds then water the land. Controlling the machine with the help of mobile application manually or automatically.
- User can access all the mechanism including (Watering, Seeder and Plaughing).
- User gives direction to the machine where farming through mobile application.
- User can give the parameters of Farming (e.g straight 10 meters, left 2 meters, right 4 meters etc).
- Carrier of 1 liter water tanker with the help of 12V pump and a pipe.
-
Carrier of seeds in small box where it takes moter for dropping it.
Make Harware Interface By using following components :
- Using Arduino.
- Using Relay Modules for electrically operated switch of mains voltage it can be turned on or off.
- Using DC Gear motors (Watering,Plaughing,Seeder,Tires).
- Using Bluetooth module for communication module.
- Using Encoders for note the readings when working automatic mode.
- Using Fabrication walls for Body of bot
- By using all of these we could made a automated/manually mode of farmer bot.
Software Interface By Using following Languages and platforms:
In final stage we need a GUI for final presentation, controlling the farming machine through easily understandable interface mobile application. It is important that we keep our GUI simple and easy so any new user can use it with ease.
As working on the Farming bot we need Arduino IDE and C/C++ Languages for commands purpose.
- C
- C++
- Arduino IDE
- Android App Inventor
According to the Current Affair Every Ministry Talks about the Farmers and Fertiliztion Industries In pakistan should be better as soon as possible so we are working on that purpose. This Product will be much helpful for Fertilization industries to produce Fertilizers of plants with the help this Automation or Robotics System. The rules are simple and separated from functional requirements, first the Bluetooth module needs to be on after this the mobile application will interact with the application through mobile’s bluetooth and do manipulation of data using commands. As a Business Market We need To introduce the Technology (Working prototype) Which is capable for working the Agriculture Area and is much important for current affairs as Many of the Countries talks about and introduced the desert farming so the Scope of the Farming and its related technologies has wide growth in the futre works. The main benefit of this farm vehicle is Growth of greenry is Pakistan and as Technology made the work easy so everyone is capable for doing farming in cheap prices.
Technical Details of Final Deliverable??????A system should be such that can be implemented easily in any farming environment and can adapt to the conditions accordingly. Therefore, applications of these systems are also an important attribute for achieving automation through bluetooth module. Mostly the systems designed are for farming environments so our application and product also designed for that purpose. The design of mobile application is user friendly for any kind of user (Novice, Average, expert) so all user will be on one platform and easily understandable, learnable and enjoyable to use.
Limitations and Future Work:
- Arduino module is not much suitable for product prototype with other pi devices but Raspberry pie module can be done as a future work.
- This project is deployed locally not globally.
- The Seeder Mechanism Should be more Accurate when the Mechanism involves accurate teeth DC motor this must be costly.
- Ultrasonic, Temperature and Water indicator Sensors should be added in future implementations for making the machine more accurate.
- Camera Should be added for future works as farmer bot see where farming and report to the mobile application which user accessed and see the report.
- With the help of Artificial intelligence Algorithms Machine must be more accurate for working (e.g. by using Heuristic functions, A* Search or PDS Algorithms for best route findings)
So these are the limitations of Work For future Implementation but as we proposed the working Protype we capable for doing all the stuff in future as you as approved our Form and will fund/Sponsored us.
