Study on Collaborative Operations Between Robots in Smart Agriculture

Abstract

Translate Article

In recent years, smart agriculture has been gaining attention, and active research is being conducted on automation through robotics. Generally, farms involve vast areas for cultivation regardless of the type of crops, so it is more efficient for multiple harvest robots and container transport robots to collaborate on tasks rather than a single robot performing both harvesting and transportation tasks. While research on agricultural harvest robots is reported, there are few reports on the automatic transport of containers after harvesting or the collaborative operations between harvest robots and container transport robots. This research focuses on the development of harvest robots and container transport robots, and examines their collaborative operations and communication methods between the robots, which is reported here.
