Agricultural Robotics and Its Scope in India

Abstract

Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, structural depositions, manufacture and application of robots. Robotics brings together several very different engineering areas and skills. Robotics is related to the science of electronics, Engineering, mechanics, mechatronics, and software. There is metalworking for the body and we have mechanics for mounting the wheels on the axles, connecting them to the motors and keeping the body in balance. You need electronics to power the motors and connect the sensors to the controllers. At last you need the software to understand the sensors and drive the robot around. Today Robotics is the rapidly growing field and it is continue in research, design, and build new robots that serve various practical purposes. As it has taken drive in various fields is there any possibility that robot can be introduced in the farming.
