| My orignal yard bot platform was reborn. Yard Bot 2 mows the lawn. It took about 1 month to build and cost $300.00. Yard Bot 2 is linked to my laptop via a radio modem. The control is done through my web browser with a custom active X control. Future improvments to yard bot 2 will include, to add a camera with a software controlled pan and tilt mount
and laser ranging.
