Let the sun mow your lawn!

aurinco_mower_1

Well, the sun won’t actually mow your lawn, but it’ll definitely power the lawnmower. The Aurinco lawnmower merges manpower with solar power to provide the optimally energy-intensive lawn-mowing experience. The mower is a hand-pushed machine, but the blades and motors are powered by solar panels that sit out on the top of the lawnmower’s body.

The design of the mower features a folding handle, allowing it to be stored easily. There’s even provision for powering the lawnmower via electricity, in case the sky happens to be overcast… or you live north of the arctic circle. Neat, isn’t it??

Designer: Leonardo Caricato
