Robot that weeds the garden for you

Love the sound of this! It's from the creator of Roomba - the robot vacuum. This one scurries around the garden and chops weeds for you.

That's cool - I can see it now, Roomba hooking up with the robot vacuum cleaner and lots of mini robots cleaning your entire house/yard :wink:

Is there a lawn mowing version?

Re: Robot that weeds the garden for you

In Germany robot lawn mowers are getting market share, had a quick search here as a lawn less person and you didn't get much change from 20k.

Here's a new robot that can mop the floor, find items that you have lost around the house, put away the dishes and get you a drink - http://aeolusbot.com/our-robots/

 

I also like the fact it can recognise when an aged person might have had a fall. 

 

What jobs around the house would you love a robot to do?

A robot that does the dusting would be good. It's a tedious job and it seems like its time to start again almost as soon as you are finished.
