1A1-G03 Mobile Eggplant Grading Robot : Construction of prototype and field test

DOI Web Site

Description

Precision Farming practices that required GIS and GPS system are too costly and impractical for small-scale farm. However, site-specific management is still necessary as it contribute in reducing the operation cost and also over usage of pesticides chemicals. A new approach in generating yield and quality map for small scale farm using mobile grading robot has been carried out. A prototype mobile eggplant grading robot was constructed and field test was done. The mobile robot consists of a battery railcar with the grading unit trailer hauled behind. Eggplant fruits were harvested manually and passed to the grading robot. Features information of the eggplant was taken simultaneously with the harvesting location information to create field variability map. Observations found that the constructed prototype robot was capable of accumulating the field variability information during the field test.
