This project aims to develop and demonstrate a ground robot with intelligence
capable of conducting semi-autonomous farm operations for different low-heights
vegetable crops referred as Agriculture Application Robot(AAR). AAR is a
lightweight, solar-electric powered robot that uses intelligent perception for
conducting detection and classification of plants and their characteristics.
The system also has a robotic arm for the autonomous weed cutting process. The
robot can deliver fertilizer spraying, insecticide, herbicide, and other fluids
to the targets such as crops, weeds, and other pests. Besides, it provides
information for future research into higher-level tasks such as yield
estimation, crop, and soil health monitoring. We present the design of robot
and the associated experiments which show the promising results in real world
environments.

设计并进行实验，展示了一款称为农业应用机器人 (AAR) 的轻型、太阳能电动的智能地面机器人，其使用智能感知进行植物的检测和分类，在半自主的情况下可以对低矮蔬菜进行各种操作，如除草、施肥、喷洒杀虫剂等，并提供了对未来研究的有用信息。
