Project Goals

We intend for this to be a small open-source endeavor with wishful thinking to eventually roll a business out of it.

We want this device to be:

  • Solar Powered (Totally possible, we hope)
  • DIY Capable (Parts currently sourced from Home Depot and 3 online resellers)
  • Cost Effective (Most robo-mowers are $2k and up, we're shooting for $600)
  • Safe (duh, bumpers, tilt switches, stress-break parts, etc)
  • Intelligent (Current mowers appear to either follow set paths or random "roomba" patterns, ick)
  • RC or Autonomous (first prototype is definitely RC)
  • Rain/Weather Proof
  • Easy to Maintain
