Described as the most powerful technology event in the world, the Consumer Electronics Show, CES 2025, runs January 7-10 in Las Vegas, Nev.
The robotic lawn mower arm of Segway, is presenting its latest flagship, the Segway Navimow X3 Series, during CES, according to a news release issued ahead of the event, which organizers expect will draw more than 135,000 attendees. The new premium model robot mowers from Segway Navimow, coming to market in spring 2025, are designed to maintain up to 2.5 acre lawns with unparalleled efficiency and expanded functionality, which the company describes as perfect for US homeowners — no matter the size or complexity of the yard.
“With over 200 robotic innovations, our H and i Series have made a meaningful impact on consumers‘ lifestyle and the environment. A significant amount of mowing time is returned to homeowners, and we’ve reduced over 1.13 million kilograms equivalent of carbon emissions so far,” said Segway Navimow CEO George Ren. "I believe with the Segway Navimow X3 Series complementing Segway Navimow’s growing family of robotic mowers, we will continue to make significant steps in transforming traditional outdoor power tools into smart, automated solutions for American households.”
Segway Navimow X3 Series
According to details provided in the news release, the company reported that its Segway Navimow X3 Series redefines efficiency with innovative improvements, featuring a larger cutting width and accelerated mowing speed for faster, more precise maintenance of a broader range of lawn sizes - up to 2.5 acres. These advanced capabilities allow the X3 Series to cover lawns up to 5,000m² in just 24 hours, supporting a healthier lawn care routine with the ability to mow twice or more a week for optimal results, which the company explained as being “made to conquer large lawns with double the speed."
Advanced EFLS 3.0 Navigation to Tackle Challenging Terrain
The X3 Series, powered by Segway Navimow’s self-developed EFLS 3.0 -enhanced RTK coverage, vSLAM (Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping), and VIO (Visual Inertial Odometry) technologies, delivers superior stability and precision, even in challenging signal environments, and complex landscapes, such as tree-covered areas, front and backyards, and narrow pathways with ease.
Based on the upgraded 300-degree wide-angle camera and AI-enhanced algorithm, according to the company, Segway Navimow X3 Series also offers enhanced VisionFence technology, extending the mower's field of view, enabling efficient AI-driven route planning and reliable obstacle avoidance.
Highlighting Advanced Capabilities
The company announcement specified that the Segway Navimow X3 Series offers a comprehensive suite of capabilities designed to exceed user expectations, which include: An innovative 2-in-1 mower and trimmer solution to eliminate the need for manual touch up of lawn edges; 27° Climbing Capability, as the X3 Series excels on inclines, handling slopes up to 27° effortlessly; Anti-Theft Design, which the company described as featuring a robust sound alarm, app-based GPS location tracking, and an AirTag compartment for added security.
Additionally, the product offers several unique offerings:
- Real-time insights are available with an integrated screen that provides users with immediate status updates, offering a quick glance at the mower's performance.
