The lawn mower idea has been done countless times before. Search the web and you are bound to find tons of info on it. The only trick is adapting it to FIRST equipment but it doesnt seem too hard to do. However doing it safley is another question. In fact, Sharper Image sells an automatic lawn mower. I believe it uses under ground wiring (similair to an electric fence) to control itself. The blade cover goes all the way to the ground and there are sensors all over the thing to prevent it from running over someones foot. It's pretty cool. It's programable too. So you can tell it how and when to cut the grass. The only problem with it, just like everything else at Sharper Image, is the price.
