Weed control is a long-standing problem and plants, if left unchecked, can cause serious damage to crops or compromise the functionality of a working environment. Nowadays, mobile robotics is offering solutions in the agricultural sector to relieve the operator from this tedious and repetitive task, but at the same time, there are no solutions specifically designed for the industrial field. In this paper, the study and design of a remote controlled mobile robot based on electric shock for weed control for industrial sites is presented. The robotic tool is composed of two electrodes whose shape and arrangement was chosen based on experiments performed on clover plants, in order to identify the most effective solution.

Abstract
Weed control is a long-standing problem and plants, if left unchecked, can cause serious damage to crops or compromise the functionality of a working environment. Nowadays, mobile robotics is offering solutions in the agricultural sector to relieve the operator from this tedious and repetitive task, but at the same time, there are no solutions specifically designed for the industrial field. In this paper, the study and design of a remote controlled mobile robot based on electric shock for weed control for industrial sites is presented. The robotic tool is composed of two electrodes whose shape and arrangement was chosen based on experiments performed on clover plants, in order to identify the most effective solution.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
