The P1 robot from Ecorobotix is an autonomous weeding machine designed to work in cultivated fields to spray micro-doses of weedkiller using two articulated arms. The position of the red bowls is determined by a camera mounted on a mast at the front. It moves with its 2 front drive wheels, powered by a 40V battery charged by 2 solar panels. The robot positions itself using 2 GNSS antennas with RTK correction received by internet via mobile network.
This is an Ecorobotix robot whose software part has been reprogrammed to create autonomous control. The robot can detect rows of red bowls in order to track and water them. The coordinates of each bowl are saved in an internal map.
Made with ROS1 in C++, along with a web interface with HTML/CSS/JS.
