VSSAgri: A Vegetation Surveillance System for precision Agriculture application

The integration of low-cost systems in precision agriculture applications has shown great benefits, both in terms of the variety of applications and the tools used. In this paper, we present a monitoring platform for agricultural applications based on low-cost systems—also, a review on the different applications of precision agriculture. The proposed platform contains a guidance system based on stepper motors, as well as an embedded architecture for processing the various applications. The guidance system helps to drive the system in the vertical axis for multispectral camera processing. The guidance system helps to move the system in the vertical axis for processing multispectral cameras and in the horizontal axis for the movement of the two bars that will support the system. This platform was inspired by the principle of the scanner, which aims to extract all the information by sliding the scan tool. In the same way, in our case, the sliding will allow us to process the whole agricultural field. The platform proposed in this work has shown that it can be used in different types of the greenhouse, as well as for all types of applications.
