Development, Simulation and Visualization of Autonomous Farm Vehicles

Abstract: A Research in Autonomous Agricultural Vehicle Technology is presented. With the coming of the Smart Farming Revolution the development of more complicated machines has begun. Agricultural machines are made with the capability of driving themselves, using GPS maps and electronic sensors, an approach that will lead to the development of futuristic Precise Autonomous Farming Systems. The basic issues to be addressed are autonomous path planning, obstacle detection and avoidance for which various sensors will be employed such as GPS, laser-based sensors, ultrasonic sensors, IMU sensors and Camera sensors whose data has to be constantly monitored using Dead Reckoning algorithm and constant Pose Estimation. In these sensors, Camera, Ultrasonic, Laser-Based Sensors are used as Detection sensors while the IMU and GPS sensors are used as Localization sensors. Global Avoidance Subsystem which examines the whole environment of an autonomous vehicle mission-level path planner that pre-plans paths around all known obstacles. While Local Avoidance Subsystem/Reactive planner consists of an obstacle filter and an obstacle avoidance algorithm and re-plans a short way for the vehicle to navigate. With the ROS framework and all sensors data, a vehicle can guide itself through an unknown environment. This will help the farmer to undercut the labour shortage and improve the precision in farming which in turn improves the output to meet the growing demands

Traffic Management System Using IOT

Abstract: Traffic congestion is a major threat to transportation sector in every urban city around the world. This causes many adverse effects like, heavy fuel consumption, increased waiting time, pollution, etc. and causes major challenge to the movement of emergency vehicles. The reaction time required by the emergency responders plays a vital role to handle the situation. The greatest challenge they face is congestion of traffic flow. This paper presents an approach to schedule emergency vehicles in traffic. The approach combines the controlling of traffic congestion by IR sensors and detection of emergency vehicle using by RFID scanner method. The IR sensors is responsible for vehicle counting and RFID for the emergency vehicle. An IR sensors continuously count the passing vehicles & records the delay time between two vehicles. Flow of vehicles is normal means there is smooth traffic flow, or if in case, the passing time between two vehicles is decreased that means traffic congestion is happen ahead. In this situation traffic light turns to green, so that the emergency vehicle will reach its destination as fast as possible. The aim of this article is to identify and monitor the congestion system in order to provide efficient facilities. This journal also sets out a method that uses 433 MHZ RF Transmitter and receiver Wireless communication device technique and Internet of Things (IoT) to transmit the treatment request from the ambulance to the nearby hospitals and at the same time the LCD is installed on the road junction which displays the nearby hospital name and contact number for the ambulance, this smart traffic system which in turn changes the traffic signal cycle. This system can be implemented throughout the city thereby to reducing the delay.

A Performance Analysis of CassandraDB and ScyllaDB

Abstract: Big Data encompasses vast amounts of data, reaching exabytes or even zettabytes. In the current landscape, large databases play a crucial role, particularly in generating substantial data for daily analyses of social media and multimedia content. The enormity of Big Data poses challenges, given its extensive volume of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data, making traditional database systems and software techniques insufficient. Big Data is frequently defined by its 9 V’s: velocity, variety, volume, veracity, validity, variability, volatility, visualization, and value. This complexity highlights the need for a simple information management strategy that integrates various new data types alongside traditional data. The significance of Big Data databases is emphasized by the daily generation of millions of terabytes of data from sources like social media posts and multimedia. This study aims to evaluate the performance of two Wide-Column Store Big Data database systems, Apache CassandraDB and ScyllaDB, using the CassandraStress Benchmarking Tool. Key metrics such as total operation time, operation rate, partition rate, row rate, and maximum latency will be assessed as the number of records and operations increase. The development of these databases, motivated by diverse industry requirements, emphasizes their adaptation to specific needs. The research methodology outlines the tool used to compare these WideColumn Store databases on various parameters, contributing valuable insights into their performance in real-world scenarios
