Abstract

As global population growth intensifies the demand for sustainable food production, the application of robotics to agriculture emerges as a promising solution. This research focuses on the design, development, and deployment of an unmanned ground vehicle for seed planting, also known as a robotic seed planter. The robotic seed planter automates seed planting processes, offering advantages such as increased accuracy, reduced labour requirements, and optimal resource usage. Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC) Creo was used for the structural design, Proteus 8.14 for the circuitry design, and Arduino IDE 2.0 with Visual Studio Code for the programming. The design incorporates seed metering and drilling mechanisms guided by intelligent systems. Results show exceptional accuracy in seed placement (94%), operational efficiency, and adaptability to diverse conditions, with energy consumption relatively low. The planter is equipped with a web application for remote monitoring and control. The application is hosted on one of the microcontrollers and WebSockets protocol is utilized for inter-microcontroller communication. It offers an auto mode for automated planting and Manual mode for easier manoeuvrability. The findings of this study demonstrate the robotic seed planter’s transformative impact on precision agriculture, providing a glimpse into the future of efficient and sustainable farming operations.

Abstract

Quadruped home surveillance robots represent a promising advancement in home security and automation. This innovative robotic system is equipped with four-legged locomotion, allowing it to traverse various terrains within a household environment. The robot's primary function is surveillance, and it is equipped with high-definition cameras, motion sensors, and object recognition software. These sensors enable the robot to detect intruders, track their movements, and capture real-time video footage for remote monitoring. The quadruped robot's compact and agile design allows it to navigate through narrow spaces and overcome obstacles, ensuring it can patrol every corner of a home effectively. Its autonomous operation is made possible through advanced artificial intelligence algorithms, ensuring that it can detect anomalies and respond to security threats promptly. Furthermore, integrating the robot with smart home systems enables seamless communication with other connected devices and allows homeowners to control and monitor it remotely.
