A mobile outdoor power equipment machine for performing a controlled task within a work area includes a drive system for providing movement of the machine, a working apparatus for performing the task, and a scanning system for scanning an area surrounding the machine. The scanning system is configured to provide detection of physical elements in the environment to aid in navigation of the machine. In an embodiment, the scanning system and a control system are configured to scan the area, determine the presence of a physical element in the area, determine that the physical element is located within the work area, determine the proximity of the physical element to the machine, and direct a behavior of the machine.

The present invention provides a robot gardening tool system and a method for a robot gardening tool. The robot gardening tool system comprises a robot gardening tool and a boundary module. The boundary module delimits a work area and/or a non-work area of the robot gardening tool, and the boundary module comprises at least one boundary element. The robot gardening tool comprises a boundary detection apparatus, a jamming detection apparatus and a control apparatus. The boundary detection apparatus detects the at least one boundary element; the jamming detection apparatus judges whether the robot gardening tool is jammed based on a feedback signal S.sub.i of the boundary detection apparatus; and the control apparatus controls the robot gardening tool to perform an extrication operation when the robot gardening tool is jammed. The present invention also provides a method for a robot gardening tool. The robot gardening tool system and method for a robot gardening tool according to the present invention enable effective detection of jamming, reduce misjudgements, and can perform effective operations on work areas where jamming is likely.

A server device includes an area setting unit that sets a first area in which a first lawnmower executes first lawn-mowing work in a work area and a second area in which a second lawnmower executes second lawn-mowing work in the work area, a time calculation unit that obtains a first time necessary for the first lawnmower to execute the first lawn-mowing work in the first area and a second time necessary for the second lawnmower to execute the second lawn-mowing work in the second area, a machine number calculation unit that obtains the number of first lawnmowers and the number of second lawnmowers based on the first time and the second time, and a notification unit that notifies the number of first lawnmowers and the number of second lawnmowers to a smartphone. Consequently, a user can check the number of first lawnmowers and the number of second lawnmowers.

This invention relates to insect-like robots empowered by generative artificial intelligence (Gen-AI), specifically designed to address critical challenges in agriculture and environmental monitoring. The robotic bee, mantis, and dragonfly can autonomously perform essential tasks such as crop pollination, pest control, and detailed farmland inspection. These robots feature lifelike designs with components such as heads with integrated high-resolution cameras, antennae for communication, specialized mouthparts, thoraxes housing CPUs and actuators, and wings with thin-film photovoltaic solar materials. The AI models function as the brains, processing data captured by various sensors to provide real-time guidance and control commands. Leveraging advanced technologies and sustainable power sources, these robotic insect-like robots enhance productivity, sustainability, and efficiency in agricultural practices, contributing to a more secure and eco-friendly future.
