A Smart Cablebot for Spectral Imaging and Micro-climate measurements inside Greenhouses

Abstract

In this paper we have reviewed the use of a cablebot system inside greenhouses and small plots for Precision Agriculture, that is able to inform the user for plant disease and micro-climate measurements. The proposed system moves alongside a cable above a crop and takes measurements by an array of sensors (relative humidity, temperature, air quality, spectral etc) that it carries.
