The body of the robot will be approximately 4 meters wide and 2 meters long. These dimensions are chosen because the bigger the robot gets, the more expensive it becomes. However, it still needs to move efficiently through the greenhouse and can therefore not be too small. A longer robot does not make it more efficient, wider does. But still some space is needed for the motor. Concluding to a robot between 2 and 7 meters wide. The robot would be most efficient if the field's width would be a multiple of the robot’s. Regarding the surface area of the field, the chosen width would be between 4 and 5 meters. Also, a width of 40 m and a length of 44 m would result in the right surface area. The width of the field is then a multiple of the robots as required <del style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">before</del>. Further, 5 meters seems to be too wide for a total field width of 40 meters, so therefore a length of 4 meters has been chosen. In that way the robot only has to go back and forth ten times through the greenhouse without overlapping any of the ground. The robot must not be too high, since there is a sprinkler system at the top of the greenhouse. therefore, the maximum height is 3 meters. The farming robot might still be massive for the amount of field it has to cover, but that will be discussed later in "scalability". </div></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>The farming robot inside the greenhouse will be able to plant, harvest, and fertilize the potatoes.

At that moment the robot only provides the inhabitants with a very limited amount of potatoes. But since the robot is capable of much more, a few different options can be reviewed and considered to be the solution to the food shortage. The first option that can be considered, is expanding the greenhouse. With this idea, the total amount of potatoes can be increased. However, this causes the selection for the inhabitants of Mars to be stale and limited. When that is the case, the stay on Mars would not be so pleasant. But the robot can, of course, also be used for other ends than just potatoes. With the design that uses interchangeable attachments to make the robot do different tasks, new attachments can be designed to harvest other crops. Then the potato field will stay the same size, while a new greenhouse or an added part of the greenhouse will contain a new crop. This will make a more varied selection for the inhabitants of Mars. The job of the secondary users will also be easier. They only have to add new functions to the robot by sending new attachments and some new software to Mars. With some good communication to the inhabitants of Mars, the new attachments can be added easily without even needing real engineering or adjustments for the inhabitants of Mars. With the limited resources available on Mars, especially the first few years, nobody wants to do unnecessary complicated tasks. Heavy physical work also increases the danger level with minimal protection and resources. This work, of course, has to be avoided as much as possible.</div></td><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>To sustain the extra inhabitants on Mars a lot more food has to be produced to accompany for the increase in demand.
