The robot mower mows the grass in randomly
selected paths. It is necessary to route a perime‐
ter wire (1) so the robot mower can identify the
boundaries of the mowing area.
The perimeter wire (1) transmits a signal to the
robot mower. The signal is generated by the
docking station.
The robot mower identifies fixed obstacles (2) in
the mowing area using ultrasound sensors and a
bump sensor.
If the robot mower identifies a fixed obstacle (2),
it will slow down, bump into the fixed obstacle
and then continue to move in a different direc‐
tion.
Areas (3) the robot mower must not navigate and
obstacles it must not come into contact with must
be blocked off from the remaining mowing area
with the help of the perimeter wire (1).
If the robot mower identifies a blocked-off
area (3), it will slow down and then continue to
move in a different direction.
In mowing operation, the robotic mower leaves
the docking station by itself and mows the lawn.
The robotic mower is operated by the

app and the buttons in the control
panel on the robotic mower. Light strips on the
