AUTOMATION IN AGRICULTURE FIELD USING WIRELESS ROBOT

This paper is about the smart agriculture robot which can resolve farming issues, the most important issue of the farming is spray pesticides on the plant in the appropriate manner with required quantity.  The pesticides sprinkling is done by the robot using  sprinkler motor. Smart farming robot is the integrated system can  be controlled wirelessly using RF Technology.

The microcontroller used in project is Arduino Uno based Atmega328  which belongs to AVR family. It monitors signal input from sensor and controls motor pump through current driver circuit. The RF Transmitter is interfaced with HT12E encoder IC and RF Receiver is interfaced with HT12D decoder IC. The user can control robot movements wirelessly such as forward, backward, left, right, stop, motor pump on /off etc.

The robot has two gear dc motors which are controlled through L293d motor driver. A 12v rechargeable battery is used to give supply for all the units.  We can use wireless audio video camera to get live audio and video streaming on TV or PC.
