Outline of Final Research Achievements

In recent years, the introduction of good agricultural practice (GAP) has attracted attention to the traceability of agricultural crops. In this research, we developed an environment sensing mobile robot which replaces the existing field server, which is indispensable for quality improvement of agricultural crops, and tried to construct an agricultural support system. As a result, a movable field server is constructed, it is possible to gather agricultural environment information in a wide range and high precision, leading to improvement of quality of agricultural crops and reduction of burden on farmers.
