Why skip the wire?
A boundary wire has to be pegged or buried around every edge and island, and a cut wire stops the mower until you find the break. Wire-free mowers set their boundaries in an app instead, so you can change zones without digging.
The trade-off is that they need a way to locate themselves. Read RTK vs LiDAR vs vision before you choose.
