Robots in agricultural farms .

Spraying with chemicals, monitoring and harvesting of crops that are labor intensive farmers take time. Scientists are already developing a robot that can perform some of these functions using radio frequency identification. Such a robot that can perform several processes at the same time thought it would help reduce the cost of farmers.

A robot with cameras and radio frequency sensors moving along the vineyards. Is an experimental mission during which the vines are sprayed with chemicals that need to be addressed. The prototype called "IdaBot" was developed by an engineering team at Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa Idaho State.
"You can program to set the trees that are defined here need chemicals. Each tree will have a tag, which is read by IdaBot to spray chemicals needed. "
Mr. Griffin said that the autonomous robot can be integrated with other technologies such as monitoring reverence. It sends drone camera view of trees, which are processed by a computer program. The red color of the light, the more chemicals will have tree.
The robot will help farmers save costs on working hours and allow spraying the trees only have needed.
