Abstract

Due to the conditions of Colombian coffee crops where plants are sowed on steep slopes, large machinery is unable to reach and perform its functions. Therefore, it is necessary to design agricultural equipment adapted to theColombian topography and the singularities of Colombian coffee crops. This article will explain the design of an autonomous navigation system for an already built mechatronic platform. This prototype is expected to be the solution to some problematic issues in coffee crops such as the exposure of the workforce to weather changes and long hours of work in sowing, harvest, and post-harvest operations. By developing this system, it is expected to achieve higher yields within these severe work conditions in the coffee fields.
