IntelliMow is an algorithm for generating paths robots can follow in order to cover a two-dimensional area. The scenario this algorithm handles is for mowing lawns.

• Minimal double coverage
• Obstacle avoidance
• Multiple lawn configurations
• Editor for creating lawn configurations with ease

• The user inputs the boundaries of their lawn through the editor, then saves the boundaries
• The user then opens up their lawn, and clicks a point on the boundary for the robot to start from
• The algorithm plans a path and displays the path and draws a robot following the generated path

• The algorithm proceeds from a start point on a boundary selected by the user
• The algorithm then raycasts left and right, adding the furthest hit points to the robot's path nodes
• If the direct path between path nodes crosses any boundaries, the algorithm adds intermediate path nodes to direct the robot around the boundary
• The algorithm searches between the left and right hit points to determine the start point for the next iteration
• The algorithm repeats this process until it reaches theh end of the boundary
