Abstract
Looking towards the current scenario of our food production system, one can say how broken it is. As a result we are destroying our health as well as our environ-ment.For that we came up with a new paradigm of precision agriculture to reduce the environment impacts of farming by reducing water use, energy, transportation, petrochemicals and to grow our organic food by our self at our own place.
The end goal with Farmbot is to create a robot that will tend to a variety of plants in a garden, with minimal user interaction through a computer or mobile application. Each plant could be given specialized care according to their needs, and Farmbot could monitor the growth of each plant from seeding to harvesting time. Obviously this is a massive undertaking, so we honed the scope of our senior project down to take advantage of our expertise and to provide us with achievable goals.
