Abstract
This paper proposes a brush-cutting robot which is directory operating a brush cutter. The brush cutter is useful and powerful tool rather than the hand labor. A new concept of brush-cutting robot operates the brush cutter same as the human operator. A center articulated vehicle is selected as a platform of the robotic vehicle. Because the center articulated vehicle is the zero off-tracking at the rear wheels and is able to use SSM (Sensor Steering Mechanism) for the automatic lateral guiding which is proposed by authors. In this paper the outline of center articulated robotic vehicle and the construction of its control system are shown.
