Abstract

Lawn mower is a machine that uses blades to cut a lawn at an even length. Even more sophisticated devices are there in every field. Solar lawn mower is a very useful device which is very simple in construction. It is used to maintain and keep lawns in gardens, schools, colleges etc. Unskilled operator can operate easily and maintain the lawn very fine and uniform surface look. The present work proposes a model of the lawn mower powered through solar energy as well as electrical energy. This is reduced both environment and noise pollution.
