Abstract
The smart robotic lawn mowing system utilizes the ultrasonic and RF devices placed on the robotic lawn mower and boundary stands to define the mowing area, to track the position of the robotic lawn mower, and to control and monitor the mowing routes. The installed devices form a network sensor for the mowing system to determine the relative distances in between boundary stands and robotic lawn mower. The couplings of robotic lawn mower and boundary stands may further define the mowing sequences of areas, the size of areas, and the mowing routes inside each area. The control of the robotic lawn mower may be wireless and users are able to monitor and modify the settings with a computer, a cell phone, and a tablet through a wireless network, a WIFI, or an internet.
