Abstract: The growing demand for sustainable solutions in lawn care maintenance has spurred significant interest in solar-powered technology. This review paper offers a comprehensive analysis of recent developments in solar-powered electric lawn grass cutters, drawing insights from a diverse range of research studies. Through an exploration of methodologies, outcomes, and challenges, it provides valuable insights into the current landscape of solar-powered lawn care technology. Examining nineteen research papers, the review encompasses various approaches, from Bluetooth-controlled systems to Arduino and Raspberry Pi-based solutions. These studies showcase innovative design strategies and successful field tests, demonstrating the potential of solar-powered technology to enhance efficiency and reduce manual labor in lawn care operations. Despite promising outcomes, challenges such as power management, navigation, and cost-effectiveness remain significant hurdles. Addressing these challenges through collaborative efforts and innovative solutions will be crucial in unlocking the full potential of solar-powered lawn care technology, paving the way for a more sustainable and eco-friendly approach to lawn maintenance. The review encompasses a detailed examination of nineteen research papers, each offering unique perspectives and approaches to address the complexities of lawn care maintenance. From Bluetooth-controlled systems to Arduino and Raspberry Pi-based solutions, the papers explore a wide array of technologies and methodologies aimed at enhancing efficiency, reducing manual labor, and promoting sustainability in lawn care operations. Key outcomes from the reviewed papers highlight successful field tests, innovative design approaches, and promising results in terms of operational efficiency and user satisfaction. However, the review also identifies significant challenges, including power management, navigation, cost-effectiveness, and regulatory compliance, that need to be addressed to unlock the full potential of solar-powered lawn care systems.
