Introduction
Robots
A robot is a mechanical, artificial agent
and is usually an electromechanical
system.
It is a device that, because of software
programming, makes complicated

Definition
Agricultural robotics
Agricultural robotics is the use of
automation in bio systems such as
agriculture, forestry, and fisheries.It is
replacing the conventional techniques to
perform the same tasks, with efficiency.
Applying automation to agriculture has
helped create several advancements to
the industry while helping farmers save
money and time.

Why Agricultural Robots are

preferred
We can expect the robots to perform
agricultural operations autonomously
such as spraying and mechanical
weed control, fruit picking, watching
the farms day & night for an effective
report.

Techniques involving
Agricultural Robots
Processes like ploughing, seeding,
fertilizing, weeding, harvesting,
spraying etc. require large amount
man power.
Hence in order to reduce this need,
and save time and money, robots are
employed

2. Robot for weed control.
3. Forester robot.
4. Robot in horticulture.
5. Fruit picking robot.

for

Field robots work with respect to environment and

medium. They change themselves according to the
required condition.
Mobile robots are those which posses mobility with
respect to a medium. The entire system moves with
respect to environment.

Robot In Horticulture

Robo is used in lawns to cut the

grass in lawns.
It can cut any lawn, regardless of
its geometric shape.

Fruit picking robot:

The fruit picking robots need to
pick ripe fruit without damaging the
branches or leaves of the tree.
The robots must be able to access
all areas of the tree being
harvested.

Advantages of Using Agricultura

Agricultural robots are capable of
collecting crop and soil samples.
Agricultural robots may have cameras
and sensors which detect weeds and
other forms of stress.
Their sensors are used to spray only the
area affected by the parasite instead of
the entire crop
