The way of the future
For a while now I have been doodling on an idea about building a automated mower. I know there are various iterations of mowers already on the market that will mow within a pre-defined circuit. But with the success of robotic vacuums it dawned on me that it would be possible to produce a mower that could plot it’s own path based on GPS mapping of the field or area it was to mow.
So I have been working on the mechanics and matrix that a mower wold have to have in order to handle an unfamiliar terrain and be able to down load a map of an area.
