The KUMAR wireless robot lawn mower that can cover an area of 12,000 square meters (1.2 Hectares) has been revealed. The Mammotion KUMAR wireless robot lawn mower is designed for commercial use. The robot’s ultrasonic radar enables it to avoid bumping into obstacles. The KUMAR was showcased during spoga+gafa 2022 in Cologne, Germany.
The KUMAR is coming on the heels of the
Kickstarter campaign for the LUBA lawn mower which has more than 2,000 backers.
The LUBA is a wireless robotic lawn mower priced at US$ 2,499. It has an all-wheel
drive and a range of 5,000 square meters (0.5ha) on a single charge. Its
ultrasonic radar offers the LUBA a 220-degree field of view and excellent
obstacle avoidance. Both the KUMAR and LUBA will likely be sold via Amazon.
The Mammotion KUMAR is a more powerful
robot lawn mower than the LUBA. It has a range more than twice that of the LUBA
and is primed for commercial applications. It can mow large lawns, parks, river
embankments, and other large areas. It is fitted with a GPS-RTK satellite
positioning system and boundary setting capability. It has four ultrasonic
radars to enhance its obstacle avoidance capabilities. The KUMAR has two 24Ah
batteries and the company says the device is seven times cheaper than a regular
lawn mower.
Pricing and availability details are not
yet available for the Mammotion KUMAR robot lawn mower. Mammotion has also not
provided the release date for the innovative KUMAR.
