When Do You Need to Draw a No-Go Zone?

The No-Go Zone refers to enclosed areas within Yarbo’s working area where you do not want it to enter. While Yarbo’s stereo depth perception allows it to recognize and avoid many obstacles automatically, certain areas still require manual no-go zones to ensure optimal performance and safe operation.

Key Areas to Draw No-Go Zones

  1. Swimming Pools and Water Features
    1. Yarbo cannot operate in or near water, and entering these areas could result in damage.
    2. Recommendation: Set a no-go zone around pools, fountains, and ponds to prevent accidents.
  2. Flowerbeds and Gardens
    1. While Yarbo can navigate under trees and detect common obstacles, delicate plants or garden beds may need extra protection.
    2. Recommendation: Draw no-go zones around flowerbeds, vegetable patches, and newly planted areas.
  3. Restricted Areas
    1. Prevent Yarbo from entering spaces you want to keep off-limits, such as pet zones, tool storage areas, or seasonal setups.
    2. Recommendation: Use no-go zones to block off restricted spaces, especially if the objects are temporary.
  4. Large Fixed Obstacles
    1. Yarbo can avoid trees and shrubs automatically, but large or complex obstacles, such as parked vehicles, furniture, or heavy equipment, may require manual restriction.
    2. Recommendation: Set no-go zones around parked cars, playground equipment, or seasonal decorations to avoid interference.

Areas Where No-Go Zones Are Not Necessary

  • Trees and Bushes: Yarbo automatically detects these obstacles and marks them on the map.
  • Navigating under trees: With visual fusion navigation and odometry (ODOM), Yarbo stays on track without manual no-go zones.
