1. Comparing Global Shutter and Rolling Shutter Cameras for Image Data Collection in Motion on a UGVIn a bid to drive the adoption of precision farming (PF) technology by reducing the cost of developing an Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV), during the Reduction-To-Below-Two grand (R2B2) project we compared Arducam’s AR0234, a global shutter camera (GSC) to their IMX462, a rolling shutter camera (RSC). Since the cost of the AR0234 is approximately three times the price of the IMX462, the comparison was done to determine the possibility of using the latter for image data collection in place... J.O.

2. Securing Agricultural Data with Encryption Algorithms on Embedded GPU Based Edge Computing DevicesSmart Agriculture (SA) has captured the interest of both the agricultural business and the scientific community in recent years. Overall, SA aims to help the agricultural and food industry to avoid crop failures, loss of revenues as well as help farmers use inputs (such as fertilizers and pesticides) more efficiently by utilizing Internet of Things (IoT) devices and computing systems. However, rapid digitization and reliance on data-driven technologies create new security threats that can defeat... M. Alahe, J.O. Kemeshi, Y. Chang, K. Won, X. Yang, M. Sher |
3. Design of an Automatic Travelling Electric Fence System for Sustainable Grazing ManagementFences are used in Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) to prevent herbivores from overgrazing and under grazing forages. While effective in controlling animal entry and exit, traditional fences are not flexible enough to meet the needs of both foraging animals and plants in terms of both nutrient availability and physiological demands. An electric fencing system is a form of traditional fencing that employs an electric charge to create a barrier and dissuade animals or people from crossing it. Even... M. Alahe, Y. Chang, J.O.

4. Securing Agricultural Imaging Data in Smart Agriculture: a Blockchain-based Approach to Mitigate Cybersecurity Threats and Future InnovationsSmart agriculture (SA) is a new technology that combines the Internet of Things (IoT) with a variety of smart devices, such as drones, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), and computer systems. The integration of technology improvements in SA has led to an increase in cybersecurity concerns, specifically pertaining to the protection of sensitive agricultural image data. It’s necessary to better understand SA network systems; establish stronger network structures; identify different types and... M. Alahe, S. Gummi, J.O. Kemeshi, Y. Chang |
5. Voronoi-based Ant Colony Optimization Approach: Autonomous Robotic Swarm Navigation for Crop Disease DetectionThe early detection of agricultural diseases is essential for sustaining food production and economic viability over the long term. To improve disease detection in agriculture, this paper presents an innovative computational approach that utilizes the Voronoi-based Ant Colony Optimization (V-ACO) algorithm with Swarm Robotics (SR). Inspired by the social behaviors observed in insect colonies such as honeybees and ants, SR offers new opportunities for precision farming. SR utilizes the coordinated... S. Gummi, M. Alahe, Y.
