"The challenges of robotics and automation dealt with in this book are pivotal to progressing this area of biosystems engineering and technology development in agriculture. In particular, the international range of expert knowledge in these chapters creates a key reference and a scientific basis for the systems-oriented and interdisciplinary approach we need in this area."Professor Claus Grøn Sørensen, former President of EurAgEng, Head of Research Unit and Smart Farming Centre, Aarhus University, Denmark.This book reviews key advances in the use of robots in agriculture.

This book reviews key advances in the use of robots in agriculture. Part 1 summarises developments in key technologies, with chapters on the state of the art in location and guidance systems, GPS technologies, machine vision, navigation, actuation, communication and control technologies.
The second part of the book shows how these technologies are being deployed in practice to save labour, improve precision, speed and efficiency in agricultural operations. There are chapters on the use of agricultural robots in planting, crop monitoring, spraying, irrigation and weed management. A group of chapters focus on orchard management and harvesting, harvesting of soft fruit and in-field grading of harvested produce. Other chapters cover the application of robotics in the livestock sector.
With its distinguished editor and international team of expert authors, this will be a standard reference for all those interested in agricultural robotics and precision agriculture.
Dr John Billingsley is Professor of Mechatronic Engineering at the University of Southern Queensland, Australia. He is a Fellow of the IET (UK), past Fellow of Engineers Australia as well as a Senior Member of the IEEE (USA). Professor Billingsley was one of the founders of Australia's National Centre for Engineering in Agriculture (NCEA), recently renamed the Centre for Agricultural Engineering. He has published widely on control theory and robotics.
