Abstract :
There are two types of energy source electric and gasoline as the market appetite many different designs have been made each suited to a particular purpose. Lawn mower products are designed for large expanses of grass. With advancement an automatic intelligent mowing technology has developed. There exist several automatic lawn mowers even safer and more convenient now. It´s an alternative to the labor that the intelligent mowing technique all indeed to be set up a perimeter around lawn. That can handle over where want to do while the machine mows the grass and completely substitute the manual mower. This paper the intelligent auto-saving energy robotic lawn mower was developed by DMA-2450 platform for ARM9 system with the pose sensor TCM2 and some ultrasonic sensors to solve navigation guidance techniques. In the use of the compass to provide for the location of interfering with a small magnetic field is to ensure that the key of compass accuracy and guidance and control. This is an ultrasound type of microcomputer processor which can automatically change direction when it meets any obstacles to accomplish barrier-avoiding capabilities. The energy saving program and light circuit breaker will save power and calculate to control DC motors´ function by the traction drive and enable the mower route more efficient.
