Robot Mowers Ditch Wires for Smarter AI Navigation
5 Jan
Summary
- New robot mowers eliminate boundary wires using AI and cameras.
- Shared battery system powers tools, mowers, and even devices.
- RTK-free navigation relies on AI vision, not satellite tech.
Litheli is introducing its first robot lawn mowers, the Eyeon 500 and Skope 800, showcasing a shift towards boundary wire-free lawn care. These new models leverage artificial intelligence and camera systems for navigation, eliminating the need for traditional perimeter wires. This innovative approach allows the mowers to intelligently navigate yards and recognize boundaries without complex setup.
The Skope 800 model specifically employs Litheli's AI-VISION system, which uses multiple cameras and onboard AI to understand its environment, setting it apart from mowers reliant on RTK satellite technology. This RTK-free navigation enables greater flexibility and simpler deployment in various lawn conditions, offering a more intuitive user experience for automated lawn maintenance.
Both mowers are powered by Litheli's Infinity Power Share (IPS) interchangeable battery platform. This system, updated to LERA Power System 2.0, allows the same batteries to power not only handheld tools but also autonomous machines like the robot mowers, and can even serve as portable power banks for personal electronic devices. Pricing and availability details for these advanced mowers are expected soon.
