Gorse Mulching Robot

Designed for VUW ECEN425 as a solution to removing large amounts of gorse in limited time efficiently. Group project, in which I designed the chassis and cladding. Tracked design with a mulcher head on a articulated arm allows for a maneuverable robot that can destroy large amounts of gorse. Sprayers attach to the mulcher head to both posion the gorse stump and disperse a decomposing agent over the mulchings. Orange panelling and red lights keep the robot visible during any operation. Winch on the rear allows for steep terrain operation and rescue as required. The backhoe arm is from: https://grabcad.com/library/backhoe-loader-1
