iRobot Finally Announces Awesome New Terra Robotic Lawnmower

IEEE Spectrum Robotics 

Since the first Roomba came out in 2002, it has seemed inevitable that one day iRobot would develop a robotic lawnmower. After all, a robot mower is basically just a Roomba that works outside, right? Of course, it's not nearly that simple, as iRobot has spent the last decade or so discovering, but they've finally managed to pull it off. Today, iRobot is previewing its Terra robotic mower. It's rugged, fully autonomous, and literally wireless, using radio beacons to localize rather than relying on a buried edge wire to keep it from mulching your begonias.
