Maize seeding automation through the use of autonomous vehicles : preliminary draft of scientific publication
Material type:
TextLanguage: Spanish Series: INNOVATE – 3.2 Strategic R&D: Smart Mechanization and Weed ManagementPublication details: Mexico : EiA : CIMMYT, 2023.Description: 11 pagesSubject(s): Summary: This activity is part of a collaboration between the Chapingo Autonomous University (Mexico) and CIMMYT for the mechanization work related with Advances Research Institute (ARIs). The objective of this collaboration is focused on exploring, developing, and validating the use of robots for agricultural tasks. For this, two versions of maize seeder-robots (developed in collaboration between CIMMYT and UACh) were evaluated in the field to determine their functionality in performing the task. Additionally, a navigation system was implemented and tested to allow the robot to travel autonomously on an open field plot with preloaded information, such as travel distances and turning points. The present document is a preliminary version of the joint scientific paper of this collaboration which includes an introduction, materials and methods, results and a brief discussion and conclusions.
