Establishment of vehicle prototype, to be used greenhouses, solar power supported, automatic direction finder, microcontroller controlled

In this study, a vehicle prototype was produced in the greenhouse that could be used in the harvesting process. The aim of the work is to reduce the human labour force in transporting the harvested product. In addition, it is aimed to use renewable energy to reduce fossil fuel consumption. Magnetic field is used for automatic path monitoring system. The working logic of the vehicle can be described as follows. The crops collected from many and large greenhouse are ready to transport on the service road. There is more than one stop in each greenhouse. The robotic car follows the magnetic field through the greenhouses. It goes automatically to the desired stop according to the command sent from the mobile phone. When the desired stop is reached, the vehicle stops and visually warns. When the command "continue" is given, the vehicle continues to follow the magnetic field. If desired, it can check the presence or absence of crop crates on the road. When crop crates are detected, the vehicle stops and gives audible and visual warning. When the crates are lifted, the car continues to follow the magnetic field. When the object nearer than 20 cm approaches the vehicle, the vehicle automatically stops. This object gives audible and visual warning until it is withdrawn from the front of the vehicle. The object continues to move when it is pulled.
