... I have no idea but I would imagine there's a large overlap with the vacuums
Not really, apart from some software algorithms I guess. Totally different stuff, they use a perimetrali wire with radio signal to detect borders and can work up and down slopes and have much more advanced security measures since we'll your pet tail might be in the way. Also more security as those might be snatched by thieves walking long side your lawn ... And they are built to live under rain. Hail and scorching sun.
That pretty well describes 1st generation robo mowers: lawn roombas.
Thankfully they've evolved significantly since then and are on 4th generation tech now.
