After the automatic vacuum cleaner, that does the dirty work as you watch TV, KA came out with the idea of the automatic lawn mower. It is basically the same, but out of safety, they had to add a few minor modifications. As it works outside and after a random pattern, you have to keep it on leash, or you’ll end up searching throughout the neighborhood “have you seen my lawn mower?”. So, unless you have a well bordered yard, with no ways of escape, you’ll have to use the included perimeter cable, that you must lay down around the perimeter to be mowed (it doesn’t have to be the whole yard). The LawnBott detects the small signal emitted by this cable and it doesn’t dear trespass it. The other feature is that though it’s not waterproof, it has an incorporated water detector, so after it detects a few drops of water, it hides in its shelter. Oh, I forgot to tell you, it comes with its own lawn mower house, that you can put near the dog house, where it charges its batteries after a hard day at work. They might even become friends with your pet. After recharging, it resumes its daily shift, well, not daily, because it can even work non-stop (except for recharging time, of course) so you never have to lay a finger on your old, fuel powered lawn mower.

How it works? Simple, like in “I, Robot”, it follows a few simple rules:

1. Do not pass the perimeter cable

2. If it bumps into an obstacle, back up, turn around, follow another route. Randomly, as usual.
