I would think available power in the equation is important, but a style of trash pump that would have a: 1. Powered cutting head on the intake to cut the plants fine enough to be pumped. 2. Mechanical articulated head of some kind. Much like an optical endoscope. 3. Potentially a camera on the head, but unlikely visibility would be any good during operation. 4. Water would vacuum up the cut plants though the pump. 5. Follow on filter/centrifuge to pull most water out after pump. 6. Further mulch the remainder for collection, drying, and disposal/mulching for gardens, etc.
Tracking where the head has been already to "mow" would be hard, as well as designing a head that didn't clog but tough enough to chew through sticks and other debris.
