The Lymow One is a new robotic lawnmower that’s currently seeking funding on Kickstarter. What makes it unique is its use of caterpillar tracks instead of traditional wheels for movement. The company claims that this design allows it to easily navigate over large obstacles, including branches and steps. It is also capable of tackling inclines of up to 100% (or 45°).
Performance Specifications
This robotic mower can cover an impressive area of up to 7,000 m² in just one day. It features a mowing width of 405 millimeters and allows for height adjustments ranging from 30 to 100 millimeters. Its dual mowing discs spin at a fast pace of 6,000 revolutions per minute. The maximum power output is rated at a remarkable 1,200 watts, while the continuous power is a more modest 300 watts.
Navigation and Control
Installation is simplified since the Lymow One doesn’t require a boundary wire for navigation. Like many modern robotic mowers, it utilizes GPS-RTK technology, necessitating the setup of a base station. It also comes with an IMU unit and offers the possibility of optical detection. Users can control the mower through an app, and it supports multiple zones.
Currently, backers can order the Lymow One at an introductory price of $1,899, excluding the RTK station. Expected delivery is slated for February 2025. However, as with any crowdfunding project, potential supporters should be aware of the inherent risks, particularly with ambitious ventures like this one.
