| TITLE | Design and Implementation of a Web Server Controlled Agribot for Precision Agriculture Applications |
|---|---|
| ABSTRACT | The agricultural sector faces significant challenges from population growth, climate change, labor shortages, and resource depletion. This paper discusses the design and implementation of a cost-effective, web server-controlled Agribot to automate essential farming tasks such as ploughing, digging, irrigation, and pesticide spraying. The proposed system uses an ESP8266 Wi-Fi module as the main processing unit and web server host, which removes the need for dedicated mobile applications. Three L298N motor drivers control the robotic locomotion system, ploughing mechanism, and diaphragm pump for liquid distribution. A user-friendly web interface allows wireless operation from any device that supports Wi-Fi. Experimental results show reliable wireless control within 20 to 30 meters, accurate motor actuation, and effective completion of all farming tasks. This research offers a low-cost, accessible solution for precision agriculture that is suitable for small to medium-scale farmers. |
