Abstract

The project is designed to build an obstacle detection and avoidance irrigating robot to optimize water usage for crops using ultrasonic sensor for its movement. A micro-controller (ATMEGA238) is used to achieve the desired operation, and a Water Pumping System mounted on the robot to irrigate the entire farmland. A robot is a machine like a human being that can perform the task automatically or with guidance. Robotics is a combination of computational intelligence and physical devices (motor). Computational intelligence involves the use of programmed instructions. The autonomous irrigating robotic system is a cost-effective, portable, compact and easily maintainable system that helps farmers to irrigate their farmland.
