Crazy Lawn Mower: A Software Engineer's Hardware Adventure

A software engineer, who hadn't touched hardware in 20 years, embarked on a challenging hardware journey at the urging of friends. He transformed a Raspberry Pi into a smart lawn mower control system, adding an OLED display, UPS power supply, camera, and more, to display system information, network status, mowing data, and more in real-time. Along the way, he solved problems such as high CPU usage, abnormal battery level display, and network security, ultimately creating a smart lawn mower capable of networking, monitoring, and collecting mowing data. He shared his achievements and experiences on IRC.
