Resumen

In this work the design and construction of hardware and software for a robotic mobile platform whose purpose is to perform the planting, watering and monitoring of small-scale vegetable crops. A control and communication system was designed and implemented; a PID type closed loop controller was implemented for the semi-autonomous navigation system, a communication system using a private network for access to the robot and communication peripherals for manual operation. The results were a robot for the application in the agriculture of low economic cost that contains a system for the monitoring of the vegetables. Finally, it is concluded that the system can be used in closed environments where it can dose 100 plants and deposit 50g of seeds.
