We have designed a autonomous robotic systems for agricultural pesticides applications. Currently I am acquiring the sensors data through wired lines. I want to switch this system in wireless mode. Meaning is that, I want to operate in wireless mode, i.e. want to acquire multisensors data through wireless. Can anybody suggest me suitable wireless module for the mentioned purposes.
Thanking you!
Depending on the mini PC card that you are using on your robot, you can add a WiFi, IEEE 802.15.4 or a ZigBee module and use the wireless interface to send your data to the server. Here a brief comparison between the advantages and limitations of each one of them (coverage, noise, etc.)

On your rebot you could integrate a Raspberry or Waspmote board

Other types of boards could be used if you are looking for a powerful processing transmitter to cope with large data or to use different operating systems: http://www.udoo.org/
Good luck !
Dear Imed,
Thanks for your valuable answer,
Actually I have designed a automatic robotic system for agricultural pesticides spraying, It may be dynamic environment or semi-structured environment. Of-course it requires High computing capacity and processing.
Thanks
In this case, I strongly advice to use ZigBee and choose your micro-controller board (Raspberry PI or Wapsmote) depending on your budget and preferences.
Attached two recent IEEE articles that illustrate real study cases similar to yours.
Good luck.
We are using zigbee and RPi for the same.. You can have a look at it... :)
