We thought the rider fell off or something and it was going to crash. Then it turned and kept mowing. Park Roomba!

    At a quick glance on that site I didn’t see any information about safety. Did you come across anything?

    I guess there is the line about object sensors, but would like to know a little more before deploying something with rotating blades (which is still pretty cool, don’t get me wrong)

      It’s very safe. Any orphans caught in the blades won’t do any harm to the mower.

      And can it avoid running over trash? Because if they automate the mowing you better believe nobody is out picking up the trash before mowing. And are they paying someone to ensure nobody vandalizes the machine so the cost savings is moot.

        Well hopefully they bought one of those flame throwing robot dogs that sits crouching in the woods in case someone tries to spray paint a penis on this thing.
