Design and Development of Automatic Plant Robots with Scheduling System

Abstract

Technological advances in this time are developing very rapidly, especially in agriculture. Watering activity is still done manually so that it consumes a lot of energy. Actually there are easy solutions in maintaining plants, one of which is by ensuring adequate water intake. However, this is still a problem if the intensity of watering does not obtain the needs and conditions of mineral intake in plants. In addition to observing the condition of plants, soil checking is also needed to determine the water content and soil conditions so as not to cause drought, the plants wither to death. Unfortunately, to know the conditions for when to flush, the community must also be aware of when to stop flushing, a lot of water is needed and how often watering must be done. In this paper, we propose a novel agricultural robot based on CNC machine namely Automatic Gardening Robot, which can walk at any point of the plant for farming crops autonomously without any human intervention. Automatic sprinkler robot is designed to be able to plant plants with soil media and dimensions of planting area that can be adjusted according to your own needs are still within the specified area limits
