Agricultural Autonomous Robot - Applications and Future Scopes

Applications:-

1. Agribot can be used as mechanized seed dropper used in farms with equidistant
spacing between two seeds.
2. It can be used for gardening with the suitable plant layout being set as the pre-
determined path for the Agribot.
3. It can be also used for dropping fertilizers in the field by reducing the period of handle
forward and reverse operations.
4. Seeds such as tomato seeds, oil seeds, watermelon seeds can be dropped using
Agribot.

Future Scopes:-
1 . Agribot could be operated through mobile.
2. Agribot could give the information of the land before farming.
3. Field soil and fertility can be tested by Agribot and according to that information, it
could be decided which seed / farming to be done on the field.
4. The funnel diameter can be increased to accommodate more seeds and to sow
seeds of larger surface area.
5. Instead of the bot stopping once the seeds are over because of IR-sensors, we can
program it to signal the client by alarm or LED’s once the seeds have reached to an
minimum level so as the task of sowing seeds wouldn’t stop.
6. Arrangements can be made to reduce the manufacturing cost of the bot such that it
could be afforded by the end-user i.e. farmer for agriculture.
7. Agribot can also be combined with other agricultural machines like tractors and
harvesters to save energy and time.
