Development of the trimmer-type mowing system against a slope

Abstract

Thus far, most mowing work was performed manually. However, manual mowing is quite laborious. Meanwhile the robotic lawn mowers are developed all over the world. But those robots can't cut the grasses near the wall and strong stem because of Rotary cutter system that need safety cover on them. So in investigation, we improve performance of mowing system can cut grasses and hard stem and develop collection system with trimmer. In this study, we researched and developed a trimmer-type mowing system that can mow grass in a slope safely. We experimentally evaluated the performance of the proposed mowing system.
