Autonomous Pesticide Spraying Robot

This is an autonomous pesticide spraying robot that is designed as a cost effective solution to spraying pesticides on crops in small scale fields.

A 2560 avr chip is used as the brain of the robot. Each 4 wheel is powered by a powerfull 12V dc motor with a reduced gear and magnetic encoder which together allow high precision wheele control. The robot utilizes ultrasonic sensors to detect the plants, and uses a compressor to spray liquid pesticide to the plants. The electronics are powered by a 3 cell lithium polymer battery.
