Worx Landroid Vision
The Worx Landroid Vision is a vision-only autonomous robotic lawn mower, notable as the first designed to navigate with neither a boundary wire, RTK antenna, nor LiDAR. It sees the lawn through a high-dynamic-range full-HD wide-angle camera, and an onboard neural network identifies and respects anything that is not grass, deciding in real time where to mow. Obstacle avoidance reacts within 0.05 seconds. Because it needs no perimeter wire or satellite base station, it requires effectively no installation, distinguishing it from the RTK-based wire-free mowers in the category.
