Autonomous Crop Cutting Machine

Abstract

In modern agriculture, efficiency, and sustainability are paramount to meeting the growing global food demand. Traditional methods of harvesting crops often involve significant manual labor, leading to physical strain, time consumption, and inconsistency in crop handling. The development of automated crop-harvesting machines has emerged as a revolutionary solution to address these challenges.

This paper introduces an Electric Vehicle (EV)-)-powered crop-cutting machine equipped with a PIC18F4520 microcontroller and Bluetooth-based control system. This innovative machine combines the latest advancements in embedded systems, robotics, and IoT to provide a reliable and energy-efficient alternative to traditional harvesting practices. With this technology, farmers can reduce their dependency on manual labor, enhance productivity, and minimize crop waste, contributing to a more sustainable agricultural ecosystem.
