Autonomous System for Agricultural Automation using Embedded Technology

Abstract

In India, the prime occupation of people is agriculture. Although, farming occupation is widely carried out in India yet the farming is done by traditional ways even having this digital and smart transforming era. Hence, our proposed system has been made advancement to reduce the efforts of farmers. In the current scenario, there is not even a single machine to carry out various tasks or farming processes altogether and also the existing methods of seed sowing are problematic. Our proposed system is an autonomous system which performs various agricultural processes like seed sowing, ploughing, cutting, weeding, etc. The very basic and significant operation is seed feeding and sowing hence a provision of sowing and feeding seeds has been made by our proposed work which will ease the work load of farmer. This system is made more automatic and efficient by using long range wireless protocols, and an additional effort has been done which avoids obstacle on the way and path, mean while wireless camera and bluetooth has been used for video interaction between the farm holder and the autonomous machine, which will detect any interference occurred during execution of work and accordingly provide the way or the direction.
