Studies on the Control Systems of Agricultural Autonomous Vehicles (Part 1)

Fuzzy Contorol Systems Using Ultrasonic Sensor

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop the control systems for agricltural autonomus vehicles which will be used in greenhouses. In this report, we describe the development of fuzzy control systems using ultrasonic sensor to recognize field ridges.
The experiment for the developed fuzzy control systems were done with motor driven vehicle on the model running road set on concrete floor. The characteristic of the fuzzy control systems has been cleared through several experiments under assorted condition, such as the distance between the vehicle and the ridge, the inclination angle of the vehicle, membership function and the type of model running road.
