The Segway Navimow robotic lawnmower range reaches a new milestone with the deployment of the V3.0 software update, available for all i-series models. This major development, which will also be integrated into the new X3 models scheduled for release in France on April 1st, brings truly exciting innovations that transform the user experience and mowing performance.
Intelligent traction inspired by the automotive industry
The flagship innovation of this update is undoubtedly the Traction Control System (TCS), a technology directly inspired by the off-road automotive industry and applied for the first time to robotic lawnmowers. This revolutionary system allows Navimow to adapt to the most challenging terrain:
- On wet or muddy ground, the TCS automatically adjusts wheel speed to avoid getting stuck.
- When faced with underground obstacles such as buried lighting or retractable sprinklers, the robot intelligently slows down to minimize the impact.
- On uneven surfaces (mole holes, slopes), stability is significantly improved.
This feature, accessible from the robot's settings, represents a major advancement for owners of gardens with complex or seasonally variable terrain.
Unique features that redefine usage.
The V3.0 update also introduces several innovations that clearly distinguish Navimow from its competitors:
Improved Weather Adaptive.
The robot now analyzes weather conditions with greater precision, automatically suspending or postponing mowing sessions in the event of rain, snow, frost, strong winds, or excessive temperatures. This intelligence not only protects the robot but also the quality of your lawn. Edge Mowing perfected
Edge finishing, often a problem for robotic lawnmowers, benefits from increased precision. The Navimow now ensures a flawless cut along defined areas, eliminating uncut edges that previously required manual intervention.
Doodle Mode
This fun feature allows you to personalize your lawn by drawing messages or patterns, similar to what Mammotion robots do. With a choice of letters, numbers, and 29 predefined designs, you can transform your garden into a canvas for expressing yourself to celebrate special events like birthdays.
Enhanced Connectivity and Enhanced Security Integration with the home automation ecosystem is further enhanced thanks to compatibility with Google Home. Users can now control their Navimow with a simple voice command: “OK Google, start mowing” is enough to activate the robot. Other commands allow it to be sent back to its dock or even activated outdoor security cameras while it's operating. Safety is also top of mind with:A redesigned anti-theft alarm that triggers as soon as the robot is lifted
Instant notifications on the mobile app in the event of an attempted theft
A child lock mode that prevents accidental activation by children or pets
The robot also offers real-time voice feedback thanks to the Voice Feedback feature, informing the user of its status, particularly when its battery is low.
- An evolution that transforms the user experience
- This new update enriches the Navimow range with features that are both practical and innovative. It offers an ever more intuitive and efficient mowing experience, while improving the safety and connectivity of our devices.
