Abstract
This project focuses on developing a robot designed to assist farmers in ploughing and digging
tasks, reducing the physical stress associated with manual labor, especially during extreme weather
conditions. The robot is equipped with a plough and a digging tool and is powered by lithiumion
batteries. It operates through an application that provides two basic modes of operation:
an autonomous ploughing mode where the robot ploughs the soil while avoiding obstacles, and a
ploughing and digging mode that allows the farmer to have full control over the robot’s movements.
The digging mode also allows for precise control of the digging operations. In addition, the robot
was tested in real field conditions, showing a significant reduction in the physical effort required
from farmers and an improvement in the efficiency of ploughing and digging.
