Robotic Lawnmower Project.

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
