Abstract

To resolve the problem of declination of Japanese agriculture, plant factories with automation, quality control, robotization and speaking plant approach are necessary. The multi operation system described in this paper has running unit with automatic position sensing. Growth environment measurement unit has transpiration, photosynthesis, distance and temperature sensors to obtain plant growth information. The pest control unit uses the antiseptic effect of ozone water. The harvesting unit is used for cucumbers that grow fast; recognition of cucumbers ready to be harvested is achieved through distance information gathered by an attached photo interrupter and distance sensors. The development of multi-operation robot is continued by developing controlling program that can change the operating pattern by sharing the contents by each controlling and operating unit.
