I would like to see a robot vacuum cleaner and a robot lawn mower sharing a common brain and programming to avoid duplicity and reduce cost. After you finish vacuuming the floor inside, attach the brain to the lawnmower and away you go.

just say "no" to grass clippings in your living room. |

A duplicitous goat, though. This thing's honest, apparently. |
|

I'm not sure, but I suspect that the "brain"
in each machine would be one of the least
expensive components. You'd be better
switching over the mains lead or the
batteries. |

Yep, the battery on my old Roomba was over half the cost. But I'd not want it wearing out twice as fast. |
|
| |
I'd like my vacuum cleaner to fill the house with the smell of new-mown grass. |

Hmmm - could be dangerous - if the robot is no longer confined to the lawn or the inside of the house, surely the next step is World Domination? |
