Riassunto

This book provides a comprehensive review of key advances in the use of robots in agriculture.

Chapters summarise developments in location and guidance systems, GPS technologies, machine vision, navigation, actuation, communication and control technologies. The second part of the book discusses deploying these techniques to save labour, improve precision, speed and efficiency in agricultural operations.

Chapters review the state of the art on the use of agricultural robots in planting, crop monitoring, spraying, irrigation and weed management. There are also reviews of orchard management and harvesting, harvesting of soft fruit and in-field grading of harvested produce. Other chapters cover the application of robotics in the livestock sector.

Dalla quarta di copertina

This book reviews key advances in the use of robots in agriculture. Part 1 summarises developments in key technologies, with chapters on the state of the art in location and guidance systems, GPS technologies, machine vision, navigation, actuation, communication and control technologies.The second part of the book shows how these technologies are being deployed in practice to save labour, improve precision, speed and efficiency in agricultural operations. There are chapters on the use of agricultural robots in planting, crop monitoring, spraying, irrigation and weed management. A group of chapters focus on orchard management and harvesting, harvesting of soft fruit and in-field grading of harvested produce. Other chapters cover the application of robotics in the livestock sector.With its distinguished editor and international team of expert authors, this will be a standard reference for all those interested in agricultural robotics and precision agriculture.
