Abstract: The present invention discloses a solar-powered automated seed sprayer robot configured for paddy field applications through integration of renewable-energy harvesting, IoT-based wireless control, robotic mobility, and airflow-assisted seed-dispensing mechanisms. The system comprises a Processor (101), Solar Power Subsystem (106), Battery Unit (107), Communication Interface (104), Motor Driver Module (109), Seed Storage Unit (111), Servo-Controlled Dispensing Valve (112), and BLDC Airflow Generation Unit (113). The solar subsystem generates electrical energy for powering robotic operations, while the IoT-enabled communication interface facilitates remote monitoring and control through wireless devices. The servo-controlled dispensing mechanism regulates seed release, and the airflow- generation unit propels seeds through a nozzle assembly for achieving uniform seed distribution across agricultural fields. The robotic mobility system enables automated navigation within paddy cultivation environments. The invention reduces manual labor, minimizes seed wastage, improves operational efficiency, supports sustainable agricultural practices, and provides a cost-effective precision-farming solution suitable for small-scale and medium-scale agricultural applications.
