iRobot's latest venture is in the direction of landscaping with this robot lawn mower. Consumers with a backyard can wholeheartedly relate to the grind of taking care of outdoor spaces and the company is targetting this stress-inducing activity with autonomous technology.
iRobot has gained popularity as a company with its Roomba robot vacuum and Braava robot mops which significantly revolutionized homecare. The latest addition to the family makes use of the firm's proprietary Smart Mapping technology which is crucial to performance. Through it, the robot lawn mower is able to memorize and "mimic traditional mowing patterns, cutting efficiently in straight, back-and-forth lines."
Consumers can control the behavior of iRobot's Terra lawn mower through an application that programs everything — from cutting times to grass height.
