Robotic lawn mowers: AI, edge-trimming, and AWD expansion

Overview

The robotic lawn mower market is evolving toward specialized navigation and mechanical solutions for edge precision. While earlier models like the Anthbot N8 and Roborock RockNeo Q1 faced criticism regarding edge-cutting accuracy, new hardware is addressing these limitations.

At IFA 2026, Anker’s eufy S2 Max was showcased, featuring a “True Edge-to-Edge Trimming” system with an extendable arm for large properties up to 15,000 m². This model utilizes TrueVision technology with 48 TOPS of computing power for 3D mapping and 360-degree obstacle detection. Similarly, the Anthbot R730 features an “EdgeEase” system, employing a robotic arm with a string trimmer to navigate walls and fences; this all-wheel-drive model is designed for inclines up to 40 degrees and targets areas up to 3,000 m², with an expected release for the 2027 gardening season.

Competition in rugged terrain and high-capacity mowing remains intense. Comparative testing of the Dreame A3 AWD Pro and the Mova LiDAX Ultra AWD shows both models are effective in rugged terrain and feature high battery autonomy, though they did not fully meet advertised 80% slope capabilities during tests. The Dreame model targets up to 5,000 m², while the Mova model is aimed at gardens up to 2,000 m².

Other established technologies continue to expand. Husqvarna’s Automower 415X utilizes GPS-supported navigation and a boundary loop for areas up to 1,450 m², capable of handling 40% slopes. Anthbot’s N8 continues to offer multi-functional utility, using Full-Band-RTK and Dual-Vision to manage up to 1,500 m², including a 23-liter collection box for vacuuming leaves and grass clippings via a cyclone sweeping system.
