Study and Experiment on a Wheat Precision Seeding Robot

The wheat precision seeding technology provided an advanced agricultural support for the high yield of wheat. but the lack of effective agricultural machine made this technique difficult to apply widely. in this paper a wheel mobile robot to achieve the wheat precision seeding technology was designed. the kinematic model of the robot was built and simulated. and experimental study was taken under different operating conditions. because of multiple effort factors,a quadratic orthogonal rotation combination design method was applied in the experiments,identifying the main factors by analysis. then the field test was carried out according to the main factors. the experiment results showed that the qualified rates of seeding exceed 93% in different sowing speed. that reached the agronomic requirements of wheat precision seeding. © 2015 lin haibo et al.
