Smart agriculture has taken more attention during the last decade due to the bio-hazards of climate change impacts, extreme weather events, population explosion, food security demands and natural resources shortage. The Egyptian government has taken initiative in dealing with plants diseases especially tomato which is one of the most important vegetable crops worldwide that are affected by many diseases causing high yield loss. Deep learning techniques have become the main focus in the direction of identifying tomato leaf diseases. This study evaluated different deep learning models pre-trained on ImageNet dataset such as ResNet50, InceptionV3, AlexNet, MobileNetV1, MobileNetV2 and MobileNetV3.To the best of our knowledge MobileNetV3 has not been tested on tomato leaf diseases. Each of the former deep learning models has been evaluated and optimized with different techniques. The evaluation shows that MobileNetV3 Small has achieved an accuracy of 98.99% while MobileNetV3 Large has achieved an accuracy of 99.81%. All models have been deployed on a workstation to evaluate their performance by calculating the prediction time on tomato leaf images. The models were also deployed on a Raspberry Pi 4 in order to build an Internet of Things (IoT) device capable of tomato leaf disease detection. MobileNetV3 Small had a latency of 66 ms and 251 ms on the workstation and the Raspberry Pi 4, respectively. On the other hand, MobileNetV3 Large had a latency of 50 ms on the workstation and 348 ms on the Raspberry Pi 4.
Developing in the smart cities concept and internet of things (IoT) technologies has become more demanding for the modern governments to overcome the growth of population and monitoring and controlling of the available resources. Smart cities with the use of the latest technologies in communications and electronics, which are the heart of IoT, have been developed and branched to cover most of the daily life needs. One of these branches is the intelligent transportation system (ITS), which is the heart of several fields like the logistics sector. This chapter aims to introduce a comprehensive overview for deploying two main examples of the technology revolution, which are autonomous vehicles and robotics technologies, in the logistics sector and illustrate the effect of using current and future approaches like IoT, AI, 5G, and more in the intelligent supply chain field.

In recent decades, there has been considerable interest in developing underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) due to their vital role in exploring ocean depths to perform missions in various applications, including offshore oil and gas, military and defense, scientific research, and aquaculture. To this end, researchers must consider multiple aspects to develop ROVs, such as general design, power and thrust system, navigation and control, and obstacle avoidance. Accordingly, this paper proposes an integrated framework for designing and implementing an ROV prototype, considering the mechanical, electrical, and software systems. Eventually, image processing was implemented using Python to examine the ROV’s capabilities in performing underwater missions. The proposed design employs six thrusters to provide controllability of the ROV in six-degrees-of-freedom (DOF). We coated the track width of the printed circuit board (PCB) with a composite mixture of tin, silver, and gold to resist corrosion and harsh environments, enhance the circuit performance and solderability, and increase its life span. The PCB was designed to sustain 30 A with 10 cm × 10 cm dimensions. The image processing results revealed that the proposed ROV could successfully identify the benthic species, follow the desired routes, detect cracks, and analyze obstacles.
