The objective of this research was to explore the use of data information of a low-cost IMU to provide an attitude angle with acceptable accuracy for agricultural robot navigation. This work was an attempt to create attitude angle estimation system via sensor fusion method based on gyroscope and accelerometer in this low-cost IMU. The used algorithm processed and integrated the data from triple gyroscope and tri-axis accelerometer using a low-pass filter and Kalman filter. Under this algorithm, experiment data showed that the estimation precision was improved effectively. It can solve noise jamming, and realize attitude angle optimal estimation.
Water is a vital and scarce resource in agriculture and its optimal management is emerging as a key challenge. This paper presents an automated irrigation system to reduce water utilization in agriculture by combining the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud...
In this paper is proposed to conduct a first stage AKIS diagnostic exercise developing a map of the system of the actors involved in water quality protection and catchment management that interact with the farming community. Specifically we will use the...
L’herbe pâturée est l’aliment qui coûte le moins cher dans une ration et la bonne gestion de l’herbe passe entre autre par une connaissance des quantités disponibles. Afin de simplifier et d’automatiser ces mesures d’herbe, et ainsi contribuer au maintien voire...
This paper, presented at the 12th European IFSA Symposium (Workshop: "Generating spaces for innovation in agricultural and rural development") in 2016, aims to summarise the main features of the AgriSpin project. The project is being financed by the Horizon 2020...
In the AgriSpin project (2015-2017) fifteen organisations involved in innovation support tried to understand better how each of them made a difference in helping farmers to innovate. In principle, each partner organisation hosted a Cross Visits of 3 – 4...
