It performs the elementary functions involved in farming i.e. ploughing the field, sowing of seeds and covering the seeds with soil. The robot is autonomous and provides the facility for optional switching of the ploughing system when required. PSoC (Programmable System on Chip) controller from Cypress Semiconductor, USA is used to control the robot.
