“…Automated vehicles and robots are commonly used for industrialized agriculture, automated greenhouses, and home gardening (e.g. [165][166][167][168][169][170][171][172]) for an expansive range of tasks (see [173]) due to their precision or cost efficiency in monitoring and supporting plant growth [174,175]. Automation approaches have been developed even for especially challenging tasks like weed control [176].…”

Biohybrid robotics takes an engineering approach to the expansion and exploitation of biological behaviours for application to automated tasks. Here, we identify the construction of living buildings and infrastructure as a high-potential application domain for biohybrid robotics, and review technological advances relevant to its future development. Construction, civil infrastructure maintenance and building occupancy in the last decades have comprised a major portion of economic production, energy consumption and carbon emissions. Integrating biological organisms into automated construction tasks and permanent building components therefore has high potential for impact. Live materials can provide several advantages over standard synthetic construction materials, including self-repair of damage, increase rather than degradation of structural performance over time, resilience to corrosive environments, support of biodiversity, and mitigation of urban heat islands. Here, we review relevant technologies, which are currently disparate. They span robotics, self-organizing systems, artificial life, construction automation, structural engineering, architecture, bioengineering, biomaterials, and molecular and cellular biology. In these disciplines, developments relevant to biohybrid construction and living buildings are in the early stages, and typically are not exchanged between disciplines. We, therefore, consider this review useful to the future development of biohybrid engineering for this highly interdisciplinary application.

“…In the study [2], wheels were attached to a pot and the pot robot with various sensors and a control board was researched. In the study [7], RIFD tags were attached to garden paths so that a robot transported water along the given paths, and water was supplied autonomously through sensor detection of temperature and humidity.…”

Since the IoT based technologies were applied to various areas, people’s living has been more convenient and efficient. In present society, the number of one-person households is on the constant rise, and the industrial advancement causes their psychological alienation more. In the circumstance, a variety of methods to recover their psychological stability try to be found. More people regain their mental stability in the way of raising plants. Therefore, this study proposes the smart pot system using a USB plug-in sensor. In this study was implemented the smart pot system that is able to check a plant’s status on the basis of accurate data, such as plant growth information and environmental information, at any times and any places, to control and maintain the environment of growth, to monitor environmental information by setting and collecting automatically such data as temperature, humidity, solar radiation quantity, CO2, and growth conditions, to detect abnormal situations through human body monitoring and fire monitoring of indoor conditions, and to prevent dangerous circumstances. In the market, there are already home pot products to which IoT technology is applied. However, most of the smart pots fail to take into account species of plants and are recommended to be used for particular plants only. The proposed system is the USB plug-in based smart pot system capable of monitoring and controlling plant growth, supporting human relationship, and implementing user-customized functions by easily expanding sensors which are able to notice indoor emergency and disaster situations in everyday life. It also can add the function of meeting an emotional need by changing a LED color when people come close to their pet plants. The proposed system is expected to help many people growing plants easily realize plant growing conditions and indoor situations and improve their psychological stability.

“…Wheeled mobile robots are implemented in many applications due to their ability to operate in wide environments and extended surroundings. Despite of robots with fixed base, the mobile robots can move and convey loads from a first position to final one which are enough far from each other [1][2][3][4][5][6]. To perform mission in variant environment, several types of mobile robot has been developed an implemented.…”

To perform mission in variant environment, several types of mobile robot has been developed an implemented. The mobile robot HILARE is a known wheeled mobile robot which has two fixed wheels and an off-entered orientable wheel. Due to extended application of this robot, its dynamic analysis has attracted a great deal of interests. This article investigates dynamic modeling and motion analysis of the mobile robot HILARE. As the wheels of the robot have kinematic constraints, the constraints of wheels are taken into consideration and the matrix form of the kinematic model of the robot is derived. Furthermore, dynamic model of the robot is developed by consideration of kinematic constraints. To derive dynamic equations of the robot, the Lagrange multiplier method is employed and the governing equations of the robot in state-pace form are presented. Then, some simulations are presented to show applicability of the proposed formulation for dynamic analysis of the mobile robot HILARE.
