        abstract = {By combining automation and smart decision-making, precision agriculture is changing the way we farm today by making it more efficient and sustainable. This paper describes how to design and build an Automated Precision Agriculture Robot that uses an Arduino for physical tasks and a Raspberry Pi for image processing and communication. The system plants seeds, waters them, and finds diseases in pomegranate crops all on its own. The IR sensor makes sure that the seeds are placed correctly, and the servo motor helps with seed dispensing. The relay controls the DC water pump, which waters the plants after they have been planted. The camera module works with the Raspberry Pi to take pictures of crops in real time and use image processing algorithms to find diseases. Farmers can use a mobile app to keep an eye on the robot's work and get updates. This helps them make decisions in real time and increases agricultural output. 
The proposed technology makes farming more efficient by cutting down on manual work, finding the best places to plant seeds, and spotting diseases early, which helps keep crops from dying. Combining IoT-based connectivity with AI-powered analysis makes it possible to keep a close eye on field conditions. This study shows how automation may solve problems in modern farming by using robotics, computer vision, and real-time communication together. The Automated Precision Agriculture Robot helps smart farming move forward by providing a scalable and cost-effective way to manage crops in a way that is good for the environment.},
