A breeding robot including a base and a support being movably connected to the base. The support is of a hollow cylindrical structure, a telescopic arm movably passes through the support, a first motor is mounted to an end of the telescopic arm away from the support, a transmission shaft of the first motor is connected to a rotating bracket, a saw blade is mounted to the bottom side of the rotating bracket, and the saw blade is used for cutting maize tassel. The end of the rotating bracket is mounted with a CCD detector, and the CCD detector is used for detecting the position of the maize tassel. A blower is further mounted to the base, an air outlet of the blower is connected to a first end of an air duct, and a second end of the air duct is connected to the air blowing portion.

A combine is a work vehicle that autonomously travels on the basis of a preset travel route, and is provided with an autonomous travel allowance switch, which is an autonomous travel allowance operation member that allows autonomous travel, and a control device that functions as an autonomous travel control part that controls autonomous travel based on the travel route. The autonomous travel control part executes autonomous travel based on the travel route while the autonomous travel allowance switch is being operated (pressed).

Techniques for autonomous vehicle boundary intersection detection and avoidance are described. In an example, a geofence boundary is received at a display coupled to a control module of a vehicle. A 2D footprint is generated using a definition of the vehicle and an implement coupled to the vehicle. Using geographic coordinates for the vehicle, a current position and orientation for the footprint are determined. A 2D projection footprint is generated for the vehicle using the current position and orientation, a current steering state, and a direction of travel. A first distance from the current position and orientation at which the projection footprint intersects with the boundary is determined. Based on the first distance, the speed of the vehicle is maintained at or below a maximum speed.

A work management system includes: a working robot configured to perform work while autonomously traveling on a field; a management facility configured to manage the field and balls; and a management device configured to know a management situation of the balls. A work schedule of the working robot is adjusted depending on a ball management situation known by the management device.

This invention relates to an autonomous snow removal machine for residential use. The machine is created by converting a manually operated snowblower to electric operation using motors, sensors, and a small computer. Key functions like wheel movement, chute control, and auger engagement are now powered by electric motors, while the auger rotation remains driven by the original gas engine or electric motor. Onboard sensors provide data to the control computer, enabling autonomous snow clearing within a defined area. The user interacts with the machine through a smartphone application to define the clearing zone and initiate the autonomous process. The machine can be operated manually when required by disengaging the clutch mechanism at the wheels and other electric motors.

The operation control method displays a horizontal control operation screen relating to horizontal control that controls a tilt of a work implement with respect to a machine body, for a work machine including a machine body, and a work implement attached to the machine body. The setting related to the horizontal control is performed in accordance with an operation of a user on a control operation unit included in the horizontal control operation screen.

A vehicle control device causes the work machine to execute automatic travel when an automatic travel button is operated by an operator in a state where a guidance screen relating to automatic travel of a work machine is displayed on an operation terminal, and does not cause the work machine to execute automatic travel when the automatic travel button is operated by the operator in a state where a non-guidance screen is displayed on the operation terminal.

A robotic work tool system comprising a robotic work tool (100) arranged to operate in an operational area (205), the robotic work tool system comprising controller (110, 240A) being configured to receive (410) a map of the operational area, receive (420) a first temporary boundary (220-1-4), receive (430) a second temporary boundary (220-1-4), and generate (440) a composite boundary (220C) encompassing the first and the second temporary boundaries (220-1-4), wherein the composite boundary (220C) is the boundary (220) for the robotic work tool (100) when operating in the operational area (205).

A battery powered octocopter drone with a protective frame. An articulating arm is mounted to the drone with a battery powered chain saw positioned along the end of the articulating arm. The chainsaw allows for the trimming of remote trees and bushes previously only accessible by a ladder or bucket lift. The drone is adjustable forward/aft to compensate for the center of gravity. The drone includes a remote control receiver, telemetry and an antenna allowing an operator to control all aspects of the drone from a remote position.

An embodiment of the present invention discloses a robot guidance device, comprising a pair of guidance cables, wherein the pair of guidance cables are disposed symmetrically relative to a center line and spaced apart from each other to form a spacing region, and a magnetic field in the spacing region is used to guide a robot to adjust its heading; and each guidance cable comprises a pair of electrically connected guidance wire segments, the pair of guidance wire segments are disposed opposite and spaced apart from each other, and a direction in which the pair of guidance wire segments are spaced apart is consistent with a direction in which the pair of guidance cables are spaced apart. An embodiment of the present invention also discloses a heading adjustment method, robot system and docking guidance method thereof.
