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 >

A Comprehensive Survey on UAV-based Data Gathering Techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks
IECE Transactions on Intelligent Systematics | Volume 2, Issue 1: 66-75, 2025 | DOI: 10.62762/TIS.2025.790920
Abstract
In the recent era of communication, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) emerged as a demanding area of study due to their communication capacity especially in the application of Internet of things (IoT). As the breadth and range of networks expand quickly, it becomes necessary to sense, transmit, and interpret the massive amount of data in IoT devices. WSN becomes even more beneficial and popular among the researchers when it integrates with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to increase the life span and establish a reliable communication between itself and Network Control Centre in an efficient way. Memory problems and network data transmission processing times are also addressed by this integrat... More >
