PROBLEM STATEMENT
Robotics holds tremendous potential for benefiting every domain
of human life.
Agriculture being an important factor for Pakistan's economy,
there is a need to introduce Robotics in this field as well.
However, this integration cannot be successful without
understanding the interaction between farmers and robots.

 Old Traditions are being followed
 Lack of technical knowledge
 Manual labor
 No concept of E-farms
 Lack of smart communication systems
 Limited Smart Greenhouses
 No availability of Controlled environments
 Poor And Inadequate
Agricultural Techniques
 Low precision
 Ineffective use of resources such
as seeds and pesticides
 Cost ineffective due to lack of
human precision
 Less revenue generation

"Precision Agriculture and maximization of farmers efficiency, along with
sustainability of crops in order to bring back Pakistan to the status
where it can not only produce sufficient crops for its own population
but be able to export its specialties once again and attain a better
lifestyle"
We are trying to contribute towards the agricultural sector, and this is just
a one small step.

PROBLEMS WE FACED
1
Powering up the Raspberry Pi
Low voltage or Power issue with
Raspberry pi
Many wires and connections
Insulation between the wires
Boost converter safe voltage range
Seed precision in Module 1  Lack of testing field for both the
modules
 COVID-19
2
 Mechanical design and fabrication since new concepts

SLOUTION TO THE PROBLEMS
 We used a 10mAh Power bank for Powering up the Raspberry Pi.
 Low voltage or Power issue with Raspberry pi was solved by using a Buck converter.
 Many wires and connection problems was solved by developing a connector board.
 Insulation between the wires was achieved by using Heat shrinks.
 Boost converter safe voltage range was checked before hand and one boost converter was sacrificed in this process.
 Lack of testing field for both the modules was solved by creating our own testing field with the available resources.
 COVID-19 problem was tackled by integrating all the processes online.
 Mechanical design and fabrication problem was solved by research and help from the YouTube videos.
