>The biggest is an autonomous articulated dump truck, which is built for quarry operations. These types of sites have been leveraging autonomy for a while now, and the new 460 P-Tier dump truck John Deere showed off at CES is the latest entry.
>Each of those products will help augment the kind of important but unglamorous work that many people never think about. And those are likely to replace or augment labor just the same. But it’s the robot mower that most of us are likely to actually encounter sometime in the near future. We just don’t know when — a rep for John Deere says “exact timing isn’t being shared right now.”
Or a business owner can purchase a fleet of these and cut their labor force in half and raise their profits.
Thank God no more leaf blowers at 730 am on a Saturday
They are still rubbish. So no worries for landscapers yet.
I’d rather have a robot with a quiet leaf blower to put the guys in my neighborhood out of business. Also, to stop them from just blowing the trash into my yard, which my guy just blows back.
who cares. imagine mowning lawn as a living. nothing but a human robot anyways. and a dumber one compared to bots, actually.
