I would like to see an option of mapping a “gate” both to let the yarbo in and out. I have multiple areas to mow and some of them are outside a gate from the charging station. I would like to be able to map where the gate is so when I set a schedule it alerts me to let the Yarbo out of the gate, and same for when it needs to re-enter the gated area to charge.
So your suggestion is for “auto-pause at this spot.” Hmm…They are going to introduce a “Go to Waypoint” feature at some point. I wonder how that will be implemented and if it will help with your request. It’d be interesting to see a waypoint added to a Work Plan and have it pause the Work Plan. @Yarbo-Forum - any update about what development is thinking about the “Go To Waypoint” feature? I haven’t heard anything.
Other folks have talked about auto-opening gates, but that’s probably doable today by putting a tag onto the rover or using some other trigger.
consider me a plus one for this until the previously mentioned gate opening solution becomes available. Can’t wait for that feature. Hopefully it’s still on the road map.
Thank you for your valuable suggestion! We understand how this feature could be useful for many Yarbo users and have passed your suggestion along to our R&D department for consideration. We appreciate your input!
The “Go to Waypoint” feature is expected to be included in release 7. We appreciate your continuous support for Yarbo, and we’re excited to bring these updates to enhance your experience!
It would be nice to have something like amazon key to be triggered during the mowing routine to let Yarbo out/in. Something that can talk to the gate opener.
@Yarbo-Forum - It is my understanding that Go To Waypoint is a SAM feature along with Tow Mode. For Go To Waypoint to help with a gate, the feature needs to be on the mower at least, as that’s when users are most likely to need to open a gate.
Thank you for your input on the gate feature! Our product team is currently working on designing the basic structure for it. Our initial idea is that this feature will be independent of the “Go To Waypoint” functionality and will be applied across all modules. We appreciate your feedback!
I have a need for this on the snow blower and leaf blower too. Waypoints should be 100% universal like a pathway. Module independent.
