PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a divot repair machine capable of automatically burying a divot with sand and identifying an exact position of the divot.SOLUTION: A divot repair machine 1 comprises: a front camera 13 imaging a lawn surface area in a travelling direction; a sensor detecting inclination angles and movement speeds of the lawn surface area imaged by the camera in a front-back and a left-right direction; and a hopper 15 for discharging a predetermined amount of sand. The divot repair machine 1 creates a flat image in which image data for the lawn surface area imaged by the front camera 13 is compensated with inclination of the divot repair machine 1 at the imaging, detects a divot from the created flat image, specifies the hopper 15 which will discharge the sand toward the detected divot, estimates a timing of reaching a position of the detected divot, and discharges the sand toward the divot at the estimated timing. |
