US-based Yarbo have developed a new modular yard robot designed for year-round autonomous garden and yard maintenance.
From Superinnovators 03/10/24
The new version features multiple attachments, including lawn mowing, snow blowing, and leaf blowing, and offers over 20 different functionalities.
The robot is equipped with advanced RTK-GPS navigation, front and side cameras, and a new WiFi HaLow data centre for precise navigation.
Yarbo’s Core model can attach up to two modules at a time, enhancing its versatility and efficiency for different tasks.
The Yarbo Core is priced at $3,599 (£2,935), while the Core bundled with the snow blower module costs $4,799 (£3,913).
When the job is done or the battery runs low, Yarbo autonomously returns to recharge wirelessly, ensuring continuous work without any hassle on your part.
New modules expected in 2025 include a tow hitch, trimmer, edger, liquid sprayer and granular spreader.
The plow blade module, available now for $199 (£162), recently demonstrated its effectiveness in a video showing it clearing snow from a yard.
The company say their robot reduces the need for multiple yard tools, saving space and effort for homeowners.
