Abstract |
|
Technology is advancing at a very fast pace, so it is mandatory to use it in every field to have the desired and proper output. The field discussed here is agriculture. Here, a Firebird V robot has employed. After sowing the seeds, the growth of seed begins. Thus, the robot is used for monitoring whether the plant/crop has grown to the correct height or not. For this purpose, an infrared sensor is used. These sensors keep monitoring the height of the plants.The height for each kind of plants is mentioned in the program. If the plant has reached its proper height, then the plant/crop is ready for harvesting and if the height of the plant/crop is improper, it is undisturbed until it is mature. |
