Sunseeker made waves in Charlotte, North Carolina with the debut of its Orion X7 robotic mower, marking what company executives call an “iPhone moment” for outdoor power equipment. The boundary-free system combines RTK precision, dual AI cameras, and Wi-Fi connectivity through Sunseeker’s proprietary AONavi technology—delivering centimeter-level accuracy without perimeter wires.
Triangulated Navigation for Unmatched Coverage
Unlike systems relying on single technologies, the Orion X7’s fusion of RTK, AI vision, and Wi-Fi creates a comprehensive yard map achieving 99% coverage. “Traditional systems might miss 25% of areas—we’re closing that gap completely,” explains Matt Moore, Sunseeker’s Robotic Sales Director. The mower’s AI-assisted mapping handles complex multi-zone properties and maintains operation even under tree canopies where GPS typically fails.
All-Terrain Performance Engineered
The Orion X7 tackles challenging landscapes with an innovative three-wheel turning system and all-wheel drive traction capable of climbing 70% slopes. Specially designed rubber treads minimize turf damage while ensuring secure footing. For delicate areas, operators can select from three cutting patterns including a traceless mode that randomizes paths to prevent rutting.
Smart Features for Professional Results
Rain sensors allow weather-aware scheduling, while customizable path planning accommodates commercial and residential preferences. The current 0.75-acre model will soon be joined by 1.5- and 3-acre versions, completing a scalable lineup for properties of all sizes. “We’re launching the full series within months to meet diverse market needs,” Moore confirms.
Commercial-Grade Autonomous Solution
Sunseeker positions the Orion X7 as a game-changer for landscape professionals seeking labor-saving technology. With 14 years of robotic mower development since its 2009 founding, the company emphasizes the system’s reliability for daily commercial use. The combination of precision navigation, terrain adaptability, and expanding model range signals Sunseeker’s ambition to lead the next phase of autonomous lawn care innovation.
