Towards a modelling, optimization and predictive control framework for smart irrigation. [PDF]
HeliyonSmart irrigation scheduling is a promising approach for improving the efficiency and sustainability of agricultural water use, especially in arid and semi-arid lands. In this paper, we present a design and simulation of a model predictive controller for smart irrigation scheduling.

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

Optimal solar power for control of smart irrigation system
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2021 Abstract Irrigation is very vital to food security but deployment of effective irrigation requires solar energy especially in the rural areas with no grid power. In this work, the optimal power required in the solar photovoltaic (PV) and the battery of a solar powered system (at any instance) for effective operation of a smart irrigation
