OpenMower
Let's upgrade cheap off-the-shelf robotic mowers to modern, smart RTK GPS based lawn mowing robots!
I had posted this several years back trying to figure out options in NA without much luck: https://github.com/ClemensElflein/OpenMower/issues/8
Sounds like the hardware platform isn't available anywhere at all now.
