Abstract

The case that has been taken here is for the development of a multidisciplinary agricultural machinery approach by exploring the application of mechatronics within it, and this development majorly focuses on precise farming through mechatronics. The University of CAPITOL Technology (2023) has also mentioned that the fusion of mechanics, computer science, and electronics along with control engineering has given birth to a cutting-edge discipline in the field of agriculture. Concerning the above statement, this study highlights the integration of mechanics, computer, electrical, and control systems to create a proposal model for the case observed. From the observed data through reviews, it is clear that there is inaccuracy in planting, seed wastage, as well as crop yielding. This model is created aiming at improving efficiency and productivity ...
