Smart Ground Robot for Real-Time Detection of Tomato Diseases Using Deep Learning and IoT Technologies
IECE Transactions on Sensing, Communication, and Control | Volume 2, Issue 2: 66-74, 2025 | DOI: 10.62762/TSCC.2024.593301
Abstract
This study presents an intelligent automated system for real-time detection and classification of tomato diseases using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) integrated within an Internet of Things (IoT) based unmanned ground vehicle (UGV). The CNN was trained and evaluated using a dataset comprising over 20,000 images of tomato leaves categorized into ten distinct diseases—Late Blight, Early Blight, Septoria Leaf Spot, Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus, Bacterial Spot, Target Spot, Tomato Mosaic Virus, Leaf Mold, Spider Mites Two-Spotted Spider Mite, Powdery Mildew—and healthy leaves. The developed CNN architecture, optimized for lightweight deployment on edge devices like Raspberry Pi 4, ac... More >

High-Voltage Power Supply: Design Considerations and Optimization Techniques
IECE Transactions on Sensing, Communication, and Control | Volume 2, Issue 1: 1-10, 2025 | DOI: 10.62762/TSCC.2024.741277
Abstract
The main goal of this study is to design and develop a half-bridge inverter architecture specifically for high-voltage power supply applications. An effective, small, and affordable system that converts direct current (DC) to alternating current(AC) can be built, thanks to the IR2151 chip’s dependable characteristics and performance. To get the desired output voltage, the transformer first increases the voltage and then the voltage is increased with a voltage-doubling rectifier (VDR) circuit. The study emphasizes how crucial it is to choose components carefully and simulate the circuit design and implementation process to guarantee dependable performance. The experimental results validate... More >
