Robotic applications in the automation of agricultural production under greenhouse: A review

摘要

This article shows a review of the state of the art in the agricultural automation under greenhouse through the use of robotics platforms as a source of solution to different problems that arise in the agricultural sector specially under controlled conditions; the writing is part of a wide review of the agricultural automation under greenhouse and a set of proposals that consider applications in various fields of research, autonomous localized irrigation, neural networks, automatic learning, monitoring and control systems among others. It is intended to determine the most recent advances in techniques for sowing, applications of chemical for sanitary control, fertilization, harvest, where robotics is used as a source to solve agricultural problems. The review includes consultation in well-known national and international journals, research carried out in centers and research groups or companies dedicated to implementation addressed to the agricultural sector, finally it is determined the solutions that can be implemented to propose new topics, research lines, development and technology transfer to the agricultural sector.
