The paper discusses a camera-based velocity estimation for unmanned ground vehicles in an agriculture scale. The proposed concept-based method does not require any geometric feature and focuses on a mapping between the captured images only. The paper provides three pilot experiments. First, we check an assumption of the proposed concept by a field experiment. Second, we check the verification by a set of numerical and laboratory experiments. Third, we check the verification by the field experiment. In the sense that the existence and sensitivity of a representation of the mapping are verified experimentally, the feasibility of the proposed concept is confirmed.
