Autonomous Robot for Identification of Soil Parameters and Collecting Scrap from Farm

Abstract

According to UNICEF solid waste can be classified into biodegradable and non biodegradable. Non biodegradable wastes cannot be decomposed by biological process. Plastics and other metals in agricultural field cause many troubles. The presence of these materials causes soil degradation. Common attributes of soil degradation can be salting, waterlogging, compaction, pesticide contamination. It also decline in soil quality, fertility loss, acidity, alkalinity, salinity, and erosion. Soil degradation also has a huge impact on biological degradation, and chemical transformation properties of the soil.In Modern world, Automation robot is used in many of the fields such as defense, surveillance, medical field, industries and so on. In this paper, the robot system is used to identify the soil parameters such as humidity, temperature and soil moisture and conducting and non conducting materials from the farm and remove it from the farm autonomously. . The presence of these scrap make the land infertile. The aim of the paper is to reduce the man power, time and to make the soil fertile. In order to avoid this, our robot will pick up the unwanted scrap from the farm.Here we use arduino as a controller. In our project we use RFID technology for robot navigation in the farm. For identifying the materials in the soil we use inductive and capacitive proximity sensors. Ultrasonic sensors are used for obstacle detection. For removing these materials we use pick and place robot.
