설명

AFARA Agricultural Robot은(는) Afara Agricultural Technologies의 Agricultural-Robots입니다. 농업, Collecting cotton left on the ground after harvest, mechanical in-row weeding (hoeing) 용도로 설계되었습니다. 주요 수치: 1500 kg, 가동 시간 360분.

The AFARA agricultural robot is Afara Agricultural Technologies' fully electric, modular field robot, built first to collect the cotton that falls to the ground after mechanical harvesting. Cameras scan the field surface in real time and image-processing algorithms tell cotton apart from soil, plant residue and other objects, so the vacuum collection system works only where cotton lies and transfers it into the robot's hopper, cutting crop losses and the need for hand picking. Interchangeable modules mount on the same robot body: besides the cotton picking module, a hoeing module with a camera in front of each hoe uses image processing and AI to detect crop rows and mechanically remove weeds on three rows at once without harming the crop, reducing herbicide use. The robot measures 3.3 x 2.2 x 2.2 m, weighs 1,500 kg and travels at up to 4 km/h on four independent electric drive motors with steering of up to 120 degrees. It navigates with LiDAR, GPS and an IMU, follows a set field route autonomously or under remote control from a phone or tablet over 4G, and a 32 kWh battery gives about 6 hours of work. Four emergency stop buttons are placed around the machine, and electric drive keeps it quiet with no direct exhaust emissions.
