At IFA 2026, ANTHBOT introduced its new R7 Series, positioning it as the world’s first robotic lawn mower designed for genuine zero-edge cutting. At the heart of the series is the innovative EdgeEase™ Trimming Robot Arm, which enables the mower to tackle areas traditionally requiring manual finishing. The R7 can trim precisely along walls, fences, flower beds, and other lawn boundaries, helping homeowners achieve a cleaner finish without the need for additional trimming.
A Robotic Arm for Automated Edge Trimming
EdgeEase™ uses dedicated LiDAR and camera sensors to continuously detect lawn boundaries and automatically adjust the trimming arm as R7 moves. It follows irregular edges along walls, fences, and flower beds to deliver zero-gap cutting without manual intervention.
“Real gardens are rarely flat, simple or perfectly shaped. With R7, we want to automate more of the work homeowners still have to do themselves, so they can spend less time managing their lawn and more time enjoying their garden,”
– Gavin Guo, CEO of ANTHBOT
Built for Complex Terrain
R7 is engineered for demanding gardens with a 6-motor AWD system featuring four drive motors and two independent steering motors. It handles slopes up to 40° (84%) and vertical obstacles up to 6 cm (2.4 in).
A 270Wh battery and 36V platform support up to 4,000 m² of daily mowing, while fast charging restores the battery in as little as 60 minutes. Dual floating cutting discs adapt to uneven ground for a consistent finish across challenging terrain.
Smarter Navigation and Safety
HoloSense™ Fusion Navigation combines dual LiDAR, PPP-RTK and AI vision for positioning and environmental perception in complex outdoor environments. R7 also combines infrared thermal-signal detection with camera-based recognition to help identify animals, including hedgehogs, hidden in grass.
At IFA 2026, visitors can see live demonstrations of autonomous navigation, slope climbing, obstacle handling, and EdgeEase™ robotic edge trimming.
The ANTHBOT R7 Series will be showcased throughout IFA 2026 at Hall 11.1, Booth 117. Availability, pricing, and regional launch details will be announced separately.
