Development of a prototype semi autonomous mobile drive for grass cutting machine / Muhammad Firdaus Rodzeaimy

This paper summarises and reviews the technological development in making a Semi-Autonomous Mobile Drive for Grass Cutting Machine. Lawn mowers has become one of the essential things in the modern age as it helps people mow their garden, field, and farm. Old and manual designs of the tool may cause the health of the people especially the elderly, to deteriorate. Therefore, the objectives of this project include designing and fabricating the existing grass cutter into a Semi-Autonomous Lawn Mower so that less energy and time will be consumed. This semi-autonomous grass cutting machine is controlled by a remote, making the operation easier and more reliable as it eases the process. The methodology of this project is comprising of sketching the concept, making the schematic diagram, doing the engineering calculation as well as project and financial cost planning. Lastly, the significance and purpose of this project is to provide a user-friendly support for the existing lawn mower so that it operates efficiently by remote controller in the agricultural field and reduce time consumption to cut the crops in the field as well as to cut the grass
