WORX Landroid M WR140 #5
Comments
Depending on whether that ESP32 runs the whole thing or just provides wifi/bluetooth connectivity you could reflash it quite easily with custom firmware. The ESP32 is reasonably powerful for an embedded soc. |
I would also like custom firmware for the Landroid. Factory firmware sucks bigtime. |
Thank you for the pictures @TonyBrobston I'm also very interested in an Opensource version of a Landroid (WR155 / L2000) in order to perpetuate the use of my robot and to bring additional features. Seeing the electronic board and the fact that the board is embedded in resin will make it very difficult to repair. The LandLord project (https://github.com/Damme/LandLord and https://hackaday.io/project/6717-project-landlord) is trying to produce an Opensource software for Worx robots (specifically the wg79X). |
Btw, the cpu is a LPC1768 under the goop (epoxy?) and U5 is a secondary CPU - STM32F373CCT6 |
I have a 2021/22 model WR147 (with the radial dial for menu navigation), and I am also interested in this project. I also have the ACS unit installed, so support for that would be a must (eventually obviously) |
Also super interested in flashing custom firmware on the worx robot. I have the Landroid L (WR148E) and would also be into modding it. Can‘t get worse than it is right now software wise 😅 |
Any chance that LandLord project and OpenMower will be combined? |
Already happening ;) See Damme/LandLord#5 |
Hi @TonyBrobston! Is there any Letters/Numbers printed on the big Controller on the Board (not the ESP32)? |
Is this still alive? I would love to jump on the wagon, but it seems the shortage of RP boards and its price spike have killed the project. |
Why not use a cheap RPi clone, like orange? |
Hello ! I too would be sooo interested in supporting the landroid. I keep an eye on the projet since a long time but the yard force is very hard to source in canada |
This part of the readme got me curious to checkout the board in my WORX Landroid M WR140.
It looks like it's a completely different board; however, I figured since I took the pictures, I mine as well post them in case this mower can somehow be supported. If that is the case, I'm definitely interested in getting off Worx horrible software, it is quite unimpressive.
