iRobot has introduced the Terra robotic mower, its first foray into automated lawn care. The Bedford, Massachusetts-based company’s latest innovation employs proprietary Imprint Smart Mapping technology to navigate yards systematically, mowing in efficient straight-line patterns like human operators.
Self-Learning System Adapts to Any Yard
The Terra remembers its position and coverage progress, returning to its charging base when battery levels run low before resuming work. Users establish boundaries by placing wireless beacons around their property and guiding the mower along the perimeter once – after which Terra operates autonomously while respecting defined no-go zones.
Complete Control Through Mobile App
Connected via the iRobot HOME App, owners can customize mowing schedules, adjust cutting heights, and monitor progress remotely. The system allows grass length adjustments and precise scheduling flexibility, enabling operation at any time of day while maintaining quiet, emission-free performance.
Built for Challenging Outdoor Conditions
Engineered to withstand diverse weather conditions, the Terra features rugged construction to navigate uneven terrain and operate in inclement weather. Its durable design ensures reliable performance across various lawn types and landscapes without compromising cutting quality.
Expanding iRobot’s Smart Home Ecosystem
The Terra represents iRobot’s strategic expansion beyond indoor cleaning robots into outdoor maintenance. By applying its expertise in autonomous navigation to lawn care, the company aims to replicate its Roomba vacuum’s success in revolutionizing another household chore through intelligent automation.
