    Smart Monitoring and Disease Detection for Robotic Harvesting of Tomatoes
    (2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Pasindu, I.; Viraj, S.; Dilshan, R.; Kalhara, A.; Senaweera, O.; de Silva, R.; Jayawardena, C.
    Tomato is a one of the most popular produced and extensively consumed vegetables in the world. Typical agricultural systems make extensive use of human labor which is more costly and less effective. This research explores the minimization of human labor through automation. The diseases infected by tomato plants are hard to detect. Identifying these diseases in advance would save the cultivation of the disease from spreading, thereby saving the crop.It is also a difficult task to recognize the ripe harvest and experienced labor is required. The efficiency of the harvesting method will be increased by automating the identification process of ripened fruits. Manually picking tomatoes can cause some harm to the fruits during plucking due to inconsistencies in human labor. Such damage will be reduced through a better implemented robotic scheme. This paper presents the development of autonomous system for tomato harvesting and disease detection.

    Indoor Autonomous Multi-Robot Communication System
    (2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Gunawardhana, K.D.W.; Kularathana, D.G.D.P.; Welagedara, W.H.; Palihakkara, H.E.; Abeygunawardhana, P.K.W.; Wellalage, S.
    Robotics, and automation systems are a hot issue right now. Controlling multiple robots at the same time has become very popular. On paper, we propose that a wireless robot-to-robot communication infrastructure be implemented to accomplish some specific tasks. The major goal of this proposed project is to showcase communication infrastructure, a dual manipulator system and a mobile charging dock robot have been designed to achieve this. Special topics and services were employed for communication infrastructure. It is more precise than current communication systems. Existing manipulation situations are limited to a single manipulator task; however, in this case, a dual manipulator task has been designed to work corporately. The charging docking stations are the only places where mobile robots may recharge. We presented a Mobile Charging Dock for recharging mobile robots in this project. This proposed project is introducing a secure communication strategy which uses a ROS topic filtering mechanism.
