TS-MAMP: A Remanufactured Agricultural Robot with Second-Life EV Components and NMS-Free On-Device Weed Detection
Agriculture 4.0 robotic systems improve field efficiency yet remain too capital-intensive for the fragmented smallholdings that dominate global agriculture. Meanwhile, a growing number of retired low-speed electric-vehicle (LSEV) powertrains retain functional electromechanical value but are destructively recycled. This paper presents TS-MAMP (Telescopic-Sleeve Modular Agricultural Mobile Platform), a remanufactured robot built under 3R (reduce, reuse, recycle) circular-economy principles. Retired 48 V brushless-DC (BLDC) hub motors are paired via back-EMF matching, and lead-acid battery modules screened at 60%-80% state of health are actively balanced within a 100 mV inter-module voltage ...
