Description

<p>Citrus cultivation in Ehime Prefecture has been flourishing on steep slopes and has not been mechanized, so it is necessary to develop automation and robotization to save labor, especially in citrus orchards. Therefore, we are developing a small autonomous unit and designing a field adaptable to the robot on steep slopes. Designing a field is essential to realize a small robotic agricultural system, and we confirmed that simpler and safer traveling is possible on a flat road with a working aisle width of approximately 1 m and a leveled slope. In this study, path detection and traveling control methods that are safe, energy-efficient, and can follow along the detected path were investigated.</p>
