Smart system for early detection of agricultural plant diseases in the vegetation period

This paper presents a smart system for the early detection of agricultural plant diseases in the vegetation period. The proposed smart system allows the detection of three types of wheat diseases, particularly yellow rust, powdery mildew, and Septoria at an early stage, and significantly improves the soil and ecology by locally spraying harmful chemicals just on sick plants. The proposed disease-detecting method is based on the structure of a convolutional neural network (CNN) using the Pycharm program based on the C ++ programming language. The basic structure of the smart system consists of Raspberry PI 4 MODULE, Raspberry Pi camera module v2, buzzer, HC-SR04 distance sensor, rotor driver, AC motor, power supply, relay microelectronics, and some digital devices.
