The Solar Agribot is an innovative, eco-friendly agricultural robot designed to automate essential farming operations such as seeding, watering, ploughing, and land levelling. The system is powered by a solar panel with a rechargeable battery and regulated using an LM2596 voltage converter, ensuring sustainable and efficient energy utilization. The core controller of the system is an Arduino UNO, which coordinates all operations. The robot is wirelessly controlled by the user through an Android mobile application using an HC-05 Bluetooth module, enabling real-time control and monitoring. Multiple relay modules are used to operate DC motors for robot movement, water pumping and seeding mechanisms. Additionally, ploughing and levelling tools are mechanically attached to the robot frame, allowing these processes to be performed automatically as the robot moves across the field. This system reduces human labor, increases precision in farming tasks, and promotes smart agriculture practices. By integrating renewable energy with automation and wireless control, the Solar Agribot offers a cost-effective and efficient solution for modern farming needs, especially in remote and rural areas.
