What happens here

The host explores cutting-edge mowing technology, starting at the Bobcat booth where an autonomous Bobcat ZT6200 zero-turn mower is showcased. The representative explains its advanced features, including radar for detecting unknown objects, control via a mobile app (allowing adjustments to striping angle and height-of-cut), and intelligent obstacle avoidance. Next, an Altoz zero-turn mower is demonstrated, aggressively tilling up the grass, suggesting it is equipped as a brush cutter rather than a finish mower. Finally, at the Honda booth, the host tries out the new electric Honda ZTR-MWM zero-turn mower, highlighting its user-friendly control panel with easy blade adjustment, power settings, deck height controls, and a parking brake. He notes its adjustable seat/cockpit and unique suspension system (torsion in the front, trailing arm in the rear) which provide an exceptionally smooth and stable ride, preventing the mower from raising up unexpectedly like some traditional zero-turns.

Goal: Demonstrate advanced autonomous, electric, and heavy-duty zero-turn mowers.

site thank you so much why appreciate it check it out guys so we're at the Bobcat booth and we are watching an autonomous Zero Turn Mower I want Tanner to tell me about this what what do we have here tell me that y so we got a fully uh fully autonomous zero turn gas powered mower y um utilizes some Radars for unknown objects you can Mark known objects you have a whole mobile app that you can basically interact and control with it so anything from changing your striping angle he if cut anything like that utilize the mobile app it uh will avoid obstacles known obstacles and unknown like a dog runs out in front of it or a kid runs out in front of it yep okay so if anything comes in front of it it'll sou for it and then if uh if you map anything a tree a bush whatever that you want to avoid it'll it'll keep going around it and keep going nice is that control with the app on your phone or something yep nice cool thanks man yeah appreciate it appreciate it a autonomous mower check it out this is from alto a track zero turn is that cool talk about a way to T grass up that thing's a beast I don't think that's a normal cutting deck either I think that's probably a brush cutter not a finish cutter what do you guys think that a brush cutter or a finish cutter guys we're with Lauren here at Honda we're going to try out this Honda ZTR this is the new electric ZTR is that right that's correct all new so let's hop on it and cheack it out H we saw this inside yesterday I guess we're not engaging blades because of the dust out here but you've got a blade adjustment you just Mash down on that turn it lock system right here that's correct brake locks with the bars out is that correct controls out is your parking brake there okay got with that and if you want to adjust the seat you can actually reach down pull that lever go forward and back oh yeah and the whole cockpit moves so that's something pretty unique and Honda's got a unique suspension system in here I forget what you call in the front torsion suspension in the rear it's like a wishbone it's a trailing arm trailing arm now you got a high and a low blade rotation speed tell me about that uh yes so basically you're getting uh I don't know the exact RPMs on it but it is a low um blade speed which normal cutting if you get into some thick stuff like that you can turn it up a higher speed obvious say a lower speed will help with battery life as well so awesome basically there you're ready to go Sweet let's go man this…
