Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

We thought the rider fell off or something and it was going to crash. Then it turned and kept mowing. Park Roomba!

My curiosity got the best of me, here's the link to Wright: https://www.wrightmfg.com/products/mowers/commercial/stand-on/robotic-zk/

The Mower

  • 40HP Vanguard Engine
  • Hydro-Gear Smartec Drive-By-Wire 12cc
  • 15.5 Gallon Fuel Capacity
  • Centimeter-level accurate RTK GPS
  • Commercial-grade Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)
  • Depth-sensing object detection cameras
  • Rock-solid wireless emergency stop
  • Remote control mode
  • Live Greenzie support: Call for support while in the field for real-time fixes.

The Software

  • Mow the boundary once, and the mower fills in the rest
  • Remembers maps and can repeat them when you come back. Just place it in the previous boundary.
  • Create no-go zones that will be saved with your map to avoid hitting hard-to-see obstacles like drain covers or small pipes sticking out of the ground.
  • Record and repeat: Record yourself mowing the entire property, and the mower will replicate your movement.
  • Manage the mower with the controller or a smart device in real-time.
  • Advanced fleet support: See how your fleet is performing. Replay entire jobs, not just a dot on the map.
  • Run multiple units at once.
  • Set the stripe angle (for those stunning cross-hatch patterns)
  • Seamless automatic updates

Damn, $45k. Though I guess for something like a park it probably has a pretty quick ROI.

The lower price for 600m² I saw here is 200$. It's very cheap.
