Claim 12:
13. A method for treatment of a lawn or other area, comprising:
providing a retrieval and charging station comprising a plurality of containers detachably attachable to the retrieval and charging station, a mixing reservoir fluidly connected to the containers, at least one charging contact, and processing circuitry;
identifying, by the processing circuitry of the retrieval and charging station, contents of the plurality of containers;
selectively directing, by the processing circuitry of the retrieval and charging station, portions of liquid from the plurality of containers into the mixing reservoir such that the portions of the liquid are mixed, thereby generating a treatment solution based at least in part on the contents of the plurality of containers as identified;
providing a vehicle configured to traverse the lawn or other area, the vehicle comprising a vehicle reservoir, a battery, and processing circuitry;
engaging, by the vehicle as directed by the processing circuitry, with the at least one charging contact to initiate a charging of the battery of the vehicle, and fluidly engaging with the mixing reservoir to fill the vehicle reservoir with the treatment solution; and
navigating the vehicle over the lawn or the other area and treating the lawn or the other area with the treatment solution via an applicator of the vehicle.
