Zusammenfassung:A mobile machine movable between multiple rows of trees includes at least two LiDAR sensors to output two-dimensional or three-dimensional point clouds data indicating a distribution of objects in a surrounding environment of the mobile machine, a storage to store environment map data indicating a distribution of trunks of the multiple rows of trees, a localization processor, and a controller to control movement of the mobile machine in accordance with a position of the mobile machine as estimated by the localization processor. The localization processor is configured or programmed to detect the trunks of the rows of trees in the surrounding environment of the mobile machine based on the point clouds data that is repeatedly output from the at least two LiDAR sensors while the mobile machine is moving, and to perform matching between the detected trunks of the rows of trees and the environment map data to estimate a position of the mobile machine.
