Abstract:
The robot is usually an electro – mechanical machine controlled by a computer or an electronic circuitry. Robots are generally designed to work the repetitive tasks, in the environment that can be dangerous for the human being, at the places where the reach of the human cannot be possible such as the bottom of the sea or outer spaces. Other than the industries, the robots are of significant use in agriculture too. These robots are termed as Agricultural Robots or Agribots. The robots are generally deployed at the harvesting stage for the product from the field or the forest. The main focus of research in this area is to design a machine that can traverse through the field or forests for the harvesting without any human intervention. The design of the locomotion and control of the robot for the environment is a challenging task and is a core concern.
This thesis deals with the different aspects of Design and Modelling of an Agribot that can be used for the harvesting on different terrains
