Design and Implementation of Agrobot with Automatic Sun Tracking

Abstract

Advancement in recent technology introduces the agriculture robotics. These robots can be harvesting stage, pesticide spraying, weed control, automatic milking and many other applications. These robots can replace the human labor and improve the production rate. To meet up the future demands and to overcome the disadvantages of the traditional methods, a agrobot that can do seed sowing along with soil testing process with automatic sun tracking solar panel manner is proposed in this paper. The agrobot will move around various ground contours, digs the ground, sows the desired number of seeds and cover it with the soil. Then adequate content of water is poured in to the ground according the texture of ground. This agrobot also do the soil testing process and the results of solid testing process can be viewed in the mobile phones through GSM module. This paper gives the complete installation details of the agricultural robot. This proposed agrobot is able to sow the seed, monitors the soil fertility, moisture content along with the automatic sun tracking solar panel.
