Remarkable! For Eufy to offer a clone of this product goes a long way in saying Eufy (Anker) must be really impressed with the Terramow. The Terramow is a smaller unit than most and only needs a few cameras to do everything, so the cost for a manufacturer to produce this should be lower than comparable RTK or LiDAR units.
@@polyscroll Absolutely! Terramow's smarts is all in software. It's hardware is pretty basic, except for maybe a bit more processing power. Even the RTK and LiDAR units still have cameras also And RTK requires a complete separate piece of hardware, so should be quite a bit of cost savings if they can get the vision only perfect.
If I missed it, I am sorry, but any mention of mowing area limits? I have about an acre to mow. And it's also a slope, so I am hopeful for a machine that can make it up and down a slope. I like the non-RTK design so I don't have to worry about aiming for satellites. My Starlink tower in the middle of the lawn tells me it sometimes has obstructions, but I just don't want to deal with setting up the TK stuff. Thanks.
SolidVUE will showcase its SL-2.2 at CES 2025-the world’s first 400x128 high-resolution single-chip LiDAR sensor IC designed for compact solid-state LiDAR. Paired with a VCSEL array-based emitter, this technology offers lower cost, smaller size, and improved vibration reliability compared to traditional mechanical LiDAR. The SL-2.2 integrates a high-density SPAD pixel array, time-to-digital converter (TDC), image signal processor, and peripheral circuits on a single chip. It delivers 400x128 high-resolution 3D point-cloud images with a wide Field-of-View (FOV), enabling precise object detection up to 200 meters, making it ideal for autonomous vehicles, security, and robotics applications.
Very interesting! That’s good for the TerraMow because Muxin can collect more data for the mowing algos :)
Wow - a robot lawn mower. Next thing you know, we'll have a self-driving car. 🙃
Remarkable!

@@Crazypostman I didn't pay close attention, but was there an availability date given by Eufy/Anker?
@polyscroll spring 2025 (april)
@@Crazypostman Thank you, sir! I will be watching for it.
I should hope it's something around €700 - €800

@@bikeny It's presumed to be identical to the TerraMow So up to 1,200sqm
👍👍
