The goal of developing of Treebot is to assist or replace people in performing forestry tasks on trees. A certain level of autonomous climbing ability of Treebot helps reduce the complexity of operation by users. An autonomous climbing strategy for Treebot is thus proposed. To determine the motions to climb up autonomously in an unknown environment, a robot must be equipped with sensors that can explore the environment. Vision sensors provide rich information about the environment. However, processing the data require a great deal of computational power. Moreover, light conditions vary in outdoor environments, which will affect the accuracy of visual information.
