Modelling and Assembling Rocker Rover and Its Implementation in the Field of Agriculture: Designing

Abstract

The Project work “ROCKER ROVER AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION IN THE FIELD OF AGRICULTURE: DESIGNING” deal with the important aspect of modification of traditional rocker rover to make it more affordable and accessible in the field of Agriculture in order to make the backbone of the Indian economy progress towards automation making it more efficient. The rocker rover has to operate on rough and harsh environments like exploring the Moon’s surface and other expeditions alike for which it was designed. But the implementation of the rocker rover can be further extended in the areas of work where the land upon which the operations needs to be executed like in the field of Agricultural farming. The rover has been completely made from PVC to increase its capacity to withstand shocks, vibrations and mechanical failures caused by working on the large rough fields where it is operated on. Using SOLIDWORKS software the design of the rover has been fine-tuned and by experimenting with prototypes and models of the rover in the experimental setup of the live test, improvements and feature were included into the rocker rover.
