Obstacle Detection and Avoidance Irrigating Robotic System
The project is designed to build an obstacle detection and avoidance irrigating robot to optimize water usage for crops using ultrasonic sensor for its movement. A micro-controller (ATMEGA238) is used to achieve the desired operation, and a Water Pumping System mounted on the robot to irrigate the entire farmland. A robot is a machine like a human being that can perform the task automatically or with guidance. Robotics is a combination of computational intelligence and physical devices (motor). Computational intelligence involves the use of programmed instructions. The autonomous irrigating robotic system is a cost-effective, portable, compact and easily maintainable system that helps farmers to irrigate their farmland.
