Robot – Strategy
1st task: |
Depending on the height of plants camera or laser will be used to recognize the left/right plants. They will define obstacles and in given radius (say 1 meter) is selected the biggest gap where to navigate. |
2nd task: |
Laser is used for obstacle detection. If thegap is smaller than robot width it will turn in place and return in the same row. |
3rd task: | Task 1 with plant detection, log files post-processing into map |
Free style: | Cooperation with an autonomous drone |
