Robot Operating System (ROS)
This is the fourth volume of the successful series Robot Operating Systems: The Complete Reference, providing a comprehensive overview of robot operating systems (ROS), which is currently the main development framework for robotics applications, as well as the latest trends and contributed systems. The book is divided into four parts: Part 1 features two papers on navigation, discussing SLAM and path planning. Part 2 focuses on the integration of ROS into quadcopters and their control. Part 3 then discusses two emerging applications for robotics: cloud robotics, and video stabilization. Part 4 presents tools developed for ROS; the first is a practical alternative to the roslaunch system, and the second is related to penetration testing. This book is a valuable resource for ROS users and wanting to learn more about ROS capabilities and features.
Remote Sensing Application for Precision Agriculture
Precision agriculture is used to improve site-specific agricultural decision-making based on data collection and analysis, formulation of site-specific management recommendations, and implementation of management practices to correct for factors that can limit crop growth, yield, and quality. Various approaches for the remote sensing of soil fertility, water stress, diseases and infestations, and crop growth and condition have been developed and applied for precision agricultural purposes. With developments in remote sensing technologies, the spatial and spectral resolution and return frequencies available from both satellite and other remote collection platforms have improved to the point t...
Mechatronics and Automation Technology
With the development of science and technology, mechatronics and automation have changed the face of the traditional machinery manufacturing industry and become an important aspect of information technology and modern industrial production, with a huge impact in many diverse fields such as manufacturing, robotics, automation, the automobile industry and biomedicine. This book contains the proceedings of ICMAT 2022, the 2022 International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation Technology, held as a virtual event due to restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and hosted in Wuhan, China on 29 and 30 October 2022. The ICMAT conference is an ideal platform for bringing together research...

AI, Sensors and Robotics in Plant Phenotyping and Precision Agriculture, volume III
Plant production needs to be improved in a sustainable manner to accommodate a rising global population and anticipated climate change. Plant phenotyping plays an essential role in optimizing the genetic potential, plant breeding, and resource deployment in plant production. Recent and comprehensive plant phenotyping emerges from the dynamic and local interaction of phenotypes with the spatially and temporally dynamic environment above and below ground, while assessing complex plant traits such as growth, development, tolerance, resistance, physiology, ecology, yield, and basic quantitative parameters. The integration of smart sensors, big data, artificial intelligence, non-invasive technologies, and information technologies is pivotal in deriving accurate plant-physiological parameters at high throughput for precision agriculture. Notably, the advancement of wearable plant sensors, which are environmentally friendly for long-term use, marks a significant stride toward smart, data-driven agriculture. This technology provides novel solutions to complex challenges in agricultural production and environmental monitoring.
