The use of intelligent mobile robots is extended vastly in terms of precision agriculture.
Multi-robot coverage path planning (CPP) is used to cover an agricultural field using a group of mobile robots.
Different robots have different motion dynamics that lead to different trajectories.
We developed the coverage path planning that satisfies the motion dynamics.
Coverage Module: Computes the coverage path for a group of survey robots using the field information.
Weed Detection Module: Computes the weed infestation rates using the weed images captured by the survey robots.
Planning Module: Computes the optimal paths for a group of herbicide spraying robots using the infestation rates of the weed locations.
Plant: Takes the state x0, control signal u0, and delay t0 as input, and outputs the current approximation of state x as output
Anytime Perception Sensor: Takes the approximate state x and a delay t, and computes the reachable states X̂
Controller: Based on the reachable states X̂, it computes the input u and delay t required for the plant and the anytime perception sensor.
