I thought about this a long time. I felt that perimeter wires were great. But to make different mowing patterns would require more wires. And if the mowing area needed to change, the wires would need to be replaced. GPS didn't seem accurate enough (at the time) and could glitch too easily. The biggest drawback is the non-patterned mowing algorithm that wastes time and energy. I settled on the idea of using a scanning head that looks for reflectors placed around the yard for triangulation. This is the method used in many factories for robotic forklifts. But I don't have time to work on such projects because work keeps me busy, and family.
@Niwen2058
@Niwen2058 Ай бұрын
I have very similar conclusions, reflectors seems great compromise - Linde use them in their HDk series, and reports 1-2 cm accuracy. Don't know about behavior in full sun thou, optical methods tend to be jammed by intense sun and scanning head is difficult to use with standard remote control solution of detecting IR signals keyed in 40kHz carrier wave. Maybe 2 colors pointing same reflector? That way by having 2 peaks on diffrent frequency we'd eliminate false positive. Adding third detector that should stay low for third color would eliminate white objects or sun glare to give false positive. Alternatively, for smaller distances, ultrasound work ok for 12m - Cheap ultrasound sensors can be modifyed to talk to each other and double distance measure range, if they would be synchronised by PPS signal from chap gps reciver - could be as accurate as GPS-RTK, but order of magnitude cheaper

I actually working in development for commercial robot mowers like that. As a collision sensor you could use a magnet on the front bumper and a Hall-effect sensor to detect changes in the magnetic field. With that you have a non-mechanic detection solution which means it's less likely to fail. You can also use it to detect if someone lifts the mower.
@1kreature
@1kreature Ай бұрын
Professional systems use a +/- single cycle chirp with a specific repetition or a waveform with a skewed duty cycle. This allows it to detect not only if it approaches the wire but from which direction. When the mower moves outside the boundary the signal is inverted and by using a chirp or skewed duty it can detect this. It is not possible to distinguish phase skew from inversion with a symmetrical signal. With proper amplification this also allows the system to always detect the signal anywhere inside the boundary so it can stop if power is lost to the boundary.

3:00 When you're trying to sense a signal of particular frequency, you terminate that inductor with a capacitor to create a tuned oscillator. Just use some random internet LC calculator to come up with the values. Safety feature suggestion: continuity detection for the perimeter wire. NRF24L01 is OK but keep in mind possibility of ESPnow, which is a similar thing but it communicates between ESP32/ESP8266 microcontrollers. I don't like shopping for NRF24L01 because there are a lot of fakes and their compatibility to each other including wireless protocol is very hit or miss, and the quality of the modules is as well. I haven't shopped for Nordic microcontrollers in a while but when i last checked they were on the expensive side as well, if you wanted to have radio and microcontroller on the same IC, which i find myself usually wanting that if possible. I wonder if there's some sort of base station triangulation system one can build cheaply. I would like everyone's suggestions, is sure to come in handy someday.

Jest Pan przedstawicielem coraz mniej licznej grupy osób na KZbin, które nadal czerpią radość i satysfakcję z tworzenia i dzielenia się swoimi dokonaniami z innymi. Dziękuję! Co do tego konkretnego projektu: jedną z zasad „skutecznego koszenia” jest możliwe ścisłe przyleganie obudowy ostrza kosiarki do podłoża. Dzięki temu pod obudową powstaje minimalne podciśnienie dzięki obracającemu się ostrzu kosiarki, które przypomina śmigło. To podciśnienie sprzyja pionowemu ustawianiu się źdźbeł trawy. To z kolei ułatwia ostrzu równe ścinanie. Zastanawiam się, czy pomyślał Pan o adaptacji jednej z dostępnych w sklepach dyskontowych taniej kosiarki elektrycznej. Częściowo znalazłem odpowiedź w samym filmie: chodzi o projekt, który można będzie w pełni zrealizować samemu. Może jednak na etapie przygotowania prototypu miałoby to sens? Czekam na kolejne projekty open source / open hardware. Na przykład na pralkę. Serdecznie pozdrawiam.

Base corrections over NTRIP are used by surveyors around the world, so don't think it could only be used on your local country. It works the same on every country, you insert the address (IP) username & password, port and (optional) mount point (basically if they have multiple receivers you can choose one). That's it, you now have the corrections. This requires an internet correction tho. But it can be used on many other rovers, even drones.

For me personally, I'm not a fan of perimeter wire (only), because typically the robot doesn't know where it is, or what the shape of the area is that it is mowing. It can't plan a route or pattern to cover it efficiently or quickly, and it can't even be sure it got to it all. It's just statistically likely that it'll cover everything eventually (if the shape isn't too unsuitable), just by randomly bouncing off the edges. Of course this can be improved with other sensors (internal or external), but true absolute positioning would be in a different category. There are of course also ways to do absolute positioning just in a small area (multiple receivers triangulating it's position), but I do understand why that isn't and can't be the focus right now. It's still great to see the whole process you use to design, even if the product or project isn't specifically "for me". Also it being open source means everyone can add whatever positioning system, or it'll be an option V2. Either way, great project!

I am really pleased to follow this project as I have been working on something similar using a commercial robot mower that I purchased on eBay. It had no charging base station, battery or working main PCB. But the BLDC motors work OK. Having no money for the expensive GPS RTK, the perimeter wire is my go-to. Can the plastic food containers withstand the UV and remain waterproof? Guess I'll find out the hard way. Have you considered using the JSN-SR20-Y1 ultrasonic detector module with car bumper-style ultrasonic weatherproof transceivers for potential collision detection? These are on my to-do list. Right now my main headache is efficient power management, as my motors are 18V and the electronics are 5V. Anyway, good luck with your progress!

Honestly, a wire is fine to keep a mower inside the perimeter, but as soon as you have a bigger lawn, having the mower drive in pseudo-random paths is just ... well wasting lots of time and energy. I currently have such a mower and the next one will definitely have to be more intelligent and know where exactly it is and what part of the lawn it still needs to do. These random things were nice when nothing better was available, but now there are commercial mowers that know where they are without parts (like cameras) that would need lots of maintenance (I guess via GPS), so I'm certain my next one will be like that, even if it costs a bit more.

Glad to see you're do this project. I also built an autonomous mower for my engineering final year project. It looks rubbish but I was suprised with how well the perimeter wire worked. My hardware is very similar to yours though. I amplified the signal by 200 using an op amp and used two inductors angled at 45 degrees to the center plane on each side of the mower. This made it very easy to program which way the robot turns when it detects the wire. Also filtering the output from the op amp with a large capcitor made it much more readable for the arduino. I have a video on my channel with the contraption in action.

I know the project is meant to be something accessible by most people, but i think for a robotic mower it kinda requires some more complex or expensive stuff just to make it viable. Wire loops and random movement would be fine for a small space, but one is going to need a more complex and expensive solution for anything more.

Wanted to say - don't use motor current sensors for bump detection. Worx robots use them and they tend to dig into ground and destroy their body. Use separate casing on top and hall sensor (or accelerometer) for bump detection. Second - to eliminate driving out of bounds in corners.. never ever do 90 degree angles in boundry wire. Smooth curves. All cable robots need this just to eliminate getting it stuck or going nuts in corners. Rounded corners. Third - make 2 coil circuit to detect wire. Then PID loop and try to keep wire between 2 detect coils. Better than one if signal is too high right under the sensor. 2 sensors on each side and when driving back using cable to recharge you try to keep wire between 2 sensors. So both sensor stay on limit.

I mean RTK GPS *is* objectively better. It's just more expensive and needs a lot more work to implement. If you have a large garden (1 acre+) then mowing randomly is super inefficient as a random path mower will be mowing some areas dozens of times while other areas might get mowed relatively infrequently (or not at all). Likewise if you have multiple smaller lawns and the mower needs to traverse areas to get to them ....with a boundary wire mower you basically need multiple mowers. Due to the relative simplicity a boundary wire mower is probably the best place to start for a DIY project though. But I'd aim to make it as modular as possible, so folks can add RTK, Lidar, vision, etc if their lawn requires it and budget allows for it.

I personally think neither solution is great. GPS RTK is too expensive and not always that reliable depending on your location (tall buildings are a huge problem). And the perimeter wire is messy and a pain to install. I think you should consider solutions such as (bluetooth) beacons and/or lidar as well. Perhaps a combination of several approaches by also using a compas and accelerometer to interpolate your location. Perimeter wire solves your border issue, but not your location.

Why not try something more innovative like lidar or something, seems like u have experience with it. Now it feels like ur just reinventing the wheel

You’re trying to reinvent too many wheels. Study the decisions that were made before you by projects like autonomous vacuum cleaners (and lawnmowers obv.). For instance there’s a reason why they didn’t simply rely on current sensors or motor-side encoders. Use the caster wheel to monitor actual motion. Also increase its diameter, it’s way too small. Base-station-less RTK is the way to go.

I like his learn-as-you-go method better. It's better from an intellectual standpoint, and it makes for more interesting videos. Of course in a business setting, building on "prior art" (i.e., the work of *other* people) is the only approach the boss will permit, but Niko is his own boss. He has no profit expectations, deadlines, or marketing considerations. He's living (and sharing) in the open-source universe, not the commercial one.

Why do you need to design a land mower? You have already swiped all lawnmowers from western Europe, haven't you?
