Abstract
This work presents the U-Go Robot, a rugged outdoor robotic vehicle. The main target for this new machine is to be a multifunctional system able to comply with different field of applications. The paper will mainly cover aspects related to agriculture and precision farming applications. The navigation algorithm mainly relays on a classical potential-field method. Moreover a new modular data fusion approach for incoming information from artificial vision to US-sonar sensors into this navigation algorithm is presented.
