My lawn is more weeds than grass by now. Nothing that a tank and some fire can't fix...
*Note: Fire is inherently dangerous. If not used in a safe manner and in a suitable environment (wet conditions away from flammable materials such as dry brush), it can lead to extreme damage like forest fires. Be careful and aware of your environment

Neat. Though I can't help but think that you might want to follow up with a quick blast of water. And maybe some hydroseed.

@Serpent0fEden 2 жыл бұрын

This is incredible! Suggestion for a mark II though: you don't need to burn the weed away entirely, it just needs to be cooked. More fuel efficient and hopefully less collateral damage :P

@chiasung 2 жыл бұрын

Good work! Remember to rake leaves before the mission! Make geofences to keep out of fences or flammable materials.

Nice video. But this way you are just burning everything, making it more fertile. These flamethrower/heat throwers are meant to destroy the cell walls so the plant dies, without actually burning the plant. You can apply the heat from a longer distance for just a few seconds. But with your way in this video, you will have a backyard full of black burnt spots and fertile ground which grows even more weed in the long run xD

@VincentNacon 2 жыл бұрын

Laser would be better than the flamethrower... so you don't have too much burnt spots all over the lawn and possibility of setting off another wildfire.

@DavesArmoury 2 жыл бұрын

The climate here is plenty cold and wet to do this safely. Also, "better" is pretty subjective. Better at not making spots? Yes. Better at satisfying my disdain for weeds... nope

@lakeguy65616 8 ай бұрын

instead of a flame, I suggest a heat gun such as one used for paint removal...

Hm. I think the bunker is under $10k. The jetson and imu are around $1k each I think. You would have to ask kinova about the arm.

How wonderful!! I would like to ask if you offer any consulting services. I am working on something similar but for crops, my resources are more limited but I would like to know how I can learn to communicate a zed camera with an nvidia jetson nano, the coordinates of the detection tags and a delta robotic arm that works with G code. Thank you very much and I am really motivated by your incredible projects!

Yes, I do a lot of consulting work and can definitely point you in the right direction. All the code is on github too
