Abstract

Trees are planted on street to improve the general landscapes. The landscape’s original design is manually maiternaned by the workers. Thus, a robot that can assit workers in trimming the trees is necessary. A self-propelled robot has been developed in order to reduce the risk to humans. The new developed robot would trim uo to 1180 m2 of tree contour when the speed is set at 1 km/h. This robot can follow the road contour and trim tree automatically.

Keywords: Pruning, Robot, Trimming
