Husqvarna Automower 450X
The Husqvarna Automower 450X is a mass-market autonomous robotic lawn mower for medium-to-large yards up to 1.25 acres. It represents the established boundary-wire regime: a buried or pegged perimeter wire defines the mowing area, with GPS-assisted navigation and guide wires for efficient return to the charging station. It handles narrow passages, complex layouts, and slopes up to 45 percent. An optional EPOS plug-in kit replaces the wire with virtual, app-defined boundaries using satellite positioning, bridging Husqvarna's legacy approach to the newer wire-free category.

Current platform
Husqvarna Automower 430X NERA
Robotic lawn mower offering two navigation regimes (vvc: autonomy depends on which): wire-free EPOS RTK-GNSS satellite positioning (centimeter-level, app-defined virtual boundaries, geographically limited and degraded under heavy tree cover) OR traditional buried boundary-wire perimeter. No camera obstacle avoidance; it mows scheduled patterns within its boundary. Shipping.

Explainers
Plain-language answers to the questions people ask about Husqvarna, from DEPLOY’s explainer library. Each is written in the language of the question and cross-checked against this registry.
- What are home robots and how do they work?
Home robots are autonomous household devices including robotic vacuums, robot mops, and robotic lawn mowers. The category is the highest-volume consumer robotics market by unit count. Autonomy depth ranges from sophisticated LiDAR SLAM with AI obstacle avoidance to simpler boundary-wire perimeter navigation depending on the product tier.
- What is Husqvarna Automower and how does it work?
Husqvarna Automower is the original commercial robotic lawn mower, first launched in 1995 by Swedish manufacturer Husqvarna Group. Traditional models navigate within a buried perimeter wire; the EPOS line uses RTK GPS for centimeter-level positioning without any wire. Husqvarna is publicly traded on Nasdaq Stockholm.
