Abstract
We have developed a new Global Positioning System (GPS) guided rice transplanter. We developed GPS and IMU guided rice transplanter in previous researches. Those were guided with GPS position data and inertia measurement unit (IMU) direction data. New one is guided with GPS position data with tilt correction during straight driving and guided with IMU direction data during turning at the headland. The GPS antenna is set to 1.5m height and 0.4m front offset from vehicle front axle. The actuator control command and data communication protocols comply with through the controller area network (CAN) bus. Steering and transmission are controlled by electrical actuators according to the location in a field. We report results of experiment.
