Segway cooks AI smarts into latest mowbot for effortless lawn care

• arclein

For some models, users will need to install boundary wires to prevent mowbots from running amok in prized flower beds. But Segway opted to rely on a GPS-based mapping and positioning solution in 2021, with the introduction of its Navimow. As with that model, the new i Series will need to map edge boundaries, but this time around the company has cooked in what's reported to be the industry's first AI assistant, enabling the mower to automatically detect the edge of a grassed area and navigate around the garden to create a map of the work area. A companion app allows users to fine-tune or revise the auto-mapped work area ?" marking zones to avoid, for example, such as the bee-friendly wild flower section ?" and also caters for mow schedules to be set.
