State of the Art of group 5


'''Navigation'''
There has been a lot of research and patents on autonomous moving and navigating. Robots are able to detect humans and other objects and can distinguish the places where it can drive. Using object recognition and laser detection it is even possible to navigate in crowded places with many pedestrians and cyclists.
'''Trash collecting'''
Collecting trash is difficult for a robot, because of the many different shapes, materials and colors that the trash can have. Cleaning dust is easy with a vacuum cleaner but bigger trash can't be done with a vacuum cleaner and must be picked up by the robot. To do this the robot needs good object recognition and must be able to grab objects of many different shapes.
'''Weed removal'''
Robots are able to detect and remove weed. It is possible to accurately recognize different kinds of weed by machine vison and precisely remove these without effecting the surrounding area.
'''Communication'''
When there are multiple robots which must work together on one task it is important that they can communicate with each other and divide the tasks. Communication can also be used to prevent robots from colliding and let them work more efficiently. There are multiple papers and patents about communication between robots, human-robot interaction and multiple robots driving on sidewalks and other smart city applications.

'''Weed detection and removal'''
With a growing world population and increasing demand of biological products, farmers are looking for new ways to improve their ways to remove weeds. Therefore there has been a lot of research on improvement of automatic and non-chemical weed removal.
Complete robots which are able to navigate autonomous on a field are already available (5, 36, 41).
Also weed detection with a camera and machine vision is possible (5, 33, 34).
Most of the weeding robots use chemicals to remove the weeds. There aren't many robots which are able to mechanicaly remove weeds. 42 and 43 describe both a possible method to remove weeds mechanically.
