Abstract
The integration of robotics in modern agriculture represents a revolutionary paradigm shift, enhancing efficiency and sustainability in food production. Agricultural robots, designed to automate various tasks, play a pivotal role in addressing the challenges faced by the industry. These robots are purpose-built for activities such as precision planting, weeding, and harvesting, streamlining processes that were traditionally labor-intensive. Their implementation leads to increased productivity, reduced operational costs, and minimized environmental impact through optimized resource utilization. This paper delves into the intricate landscape of robotic structures employed in agriculture, unraveling the diverse mechanisms and designs that underpin their functionality. It meticulously examines and elucidates the structural nuances of agricultural robots, shedding light on the engineering marvels that enable precision farming. From articulated arms to autonomous drones, the paper navigates through a spectrum of robot architectures, dissecting their roles in automating tasks critical to modern agriculture.
