Segway may be best known for its balancing scooters, but its latest wheeled product is happy on the ground where it can focus on keeping the lawn trimmed. The Segway Navimow is the company’s first robotic lawnmower and, while it may not be the first option in the space, it does promise a much easier setup with no need for a perimeter wire.
Segway’s answer is virtual geofencing, using a mixture of GPS and other sensors. Dubbed EFLS, or Exact Fusion Locating System, it combines GPS and other sensor types to get down to 2 cm positioning accuracy, the company claims. After learning the layout of the lawn, mowing zones can be established in the companion Segway app, including off-limit areas and the passages by which multiple zones can be linked.
Like a robotic vacuum cleaner, the idea is that the Navimow will automatically figure out the most efficient path across the grass, trimming as it goes. No tracks are left, and the algorithm learns over time to improve efficiency and cut down on time. Segway envisages it running much more frequently than manual mowers, too, constantly nibbling away at the grass to keep a consistent height. Areas where the grass grows thicker and higher will be prioritized with more frequent mowing.
