Proposal of position measurement method for mowing robotin Power Distribution

-Camera and method using LRF-

Abstract

In order to reduce the burden of mowing work we are developing autonomous mowing robot. As a method of measuring the position of the mowing robot, we propose a method using a camera and LRF installed on a tripod. The suggested method is to detect the red cone on the mowing robot with the camera, point the camera to the red cone, and measure the distance with the LRF to measure the position of the mowing robot. In the verification experiment, we verify that this proposed method can be applied as a position measurement method for autonomous movement of a mowing robot.
