ANTHBOT's 'Neat Revolution' Aims to Clean Up Robotic Lawn Care

LAS VEGAS, NV – January 09, 2026 – The floor of CES 2026 is a cacophony of futuristic visions, but amidst the drones and smart displays, a newcomer is quietly aiming to revolutionize a chore many homeowners dread: mowing the lawn. ANTHBOT, making its global debut, has captured significant attention with its N and M Series robotic mowers, securing over 10 industry awards and signaling a major shift in the automated lawn care market. The company isn't just promising to cut your grass; it's vowing to leave your lawn looking immaculate with a comprehensive approach it calls the 'Neat Lawn' revolution.

For years, robotic mowers have offered a trade-off: automated trimming in exchange for the follow-up work of raking scattered clippings or clearing away autumn leaves. ANTHBOT is directly challenging this compromise. "Homeowners want more than a trimmed lawn — they want a garden that looks finished," stated Vic Zhou, CEO of ANTHBOT, in the company's announcement. This philosophy is at the core of its award-winning designs, which integrate mowing with cleaning, aiming to eliminate the hidden chores that have long plagued first-generation robotic mowers.

Beyond a Simple Trim: Redefining Robotic Mowing

The centerpiece of ANTHBOT's innovation is the N Series, a modular unit designed to be a year-round garden custodian. It moves far beyond the single-function design of its predecessors by incorporating a groundbreaking 4-in-1 system that can mow, mulch, collect, and sweep. This versatility directly addresses the most common complaints from existing robotic mower users.

At the heart of its cleaning power is the proprietary Cyclone System. This feature uses the airflow from the spinning blades to actively lift and vacuum grass clippings, fallen leaves, and other small debris from the turf, depositing them into a substantial 23-liter collection bag. The result is a visibly clean finish after each pass, a stark contrast to mowers that simply scatter clippings across the lawn. The system is intelligent, with the ability to auto-detect when the bag is full and allowing users to designate specific dump sites via a companion app for easy disposal.

For homeowners who prefer to return nutrients to the soil, the N Series features a swappable Particle System. This module finely mulches the grass clippings into tiny particles that fall back into the turf, acting as a natural fertilizer to promote healthier, denser grass growth. This dual-functionality provides users with a choice between pristine cleanliness and ecological lawn enrichment, all within a single automated platform.

A Crowded Field: ANTHBOT Enters a Competitive Arena

ANTHBOT's ambitious debut comes as the robotic lawn care market is heating up. CES 2026 has been a battleground for outdoor automation, with established brands and new entrants alike showcasing increasingly sophisticated, wire-free mowers. Competitors like Mammotion, with its LUBA 3 AWD and Tri-Fusion Navigation, and Segway, with its rugged Navimow X4 series, are pushing the boundaries of all-terrain capability and navigational precision. Other award-winners, such as Sunseeker Robotics and Litheli, are also entering the fray with advanced LiDAR and AI-vision systems.

In this highly competitive environment, ANTHBOT is carving out its niche by focusing on the complete user experience rather than a single technical specification. While rivals emphasize their ability to climb steep slopes or navigate without perimeter wires, ANTHBOT's 'Neat Lawn' approach is a strategic move to solve the outcome problem—the final look and health of the lawn. By integrating sweeping and collection, it addresses a fundamental gap in the market, transforming the robotic mower from a simple grass cutter into a comprehensive groundskeeper. This system-level approach to outdoor automation earned it a "Best in Show" award from The Ambient and an Innovation Award from Trusted Reviews, validating its unique market position.

Smart Navigation for Every Garden

To deliver on its promise of a perfectly manicured lawn, ANTHBOT has equipped its mowers with advanced navigation technology tailored for different environments. Recognizing that no two gardens are alike, both the N and M Series are available in two distinct navigation variants.

The LiDAR model combines a 360° LiDAR sensor with Dual Vision cameras, making it an ideal choice for complex, segmented gardens with fences, trees, and intricate flower beds. The LiDAR provides centimeter-level mapping, while the dual cameras offer robust, AI-powered obstacle detection and avoidance. For properties with large, open expanses of grass, the RTK model pairs Full-Band RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) satellite navigation with the same Dual Vision system. This combination ensures consistent, high-precision positioning even in wide-open areas where visual landmarks may be scarce.

While the N Series is built for comprehensive care, the M Series is engineered for agility and accessibility. This more compact model is designed to deftly handle narrow passages, uneven terrain, and slopes up to 24 degrees, making advanced robotic mowing a practical solution for a wider range of homeowners. With a 20 cm cutting width and the ability to mow 120 square meters per hour, the M Series brings the same smart navigation and app-controlled features—including adjustable cutting height and multi-zone scheduling—to a smaller, more affordable form factor.

The Greener Side of a Manicured Lawn

Beyond the convenience, ANTHBOT's technology aligns with a growing consumer demand for more sustainable and eco-friendly home maintenance solutions. The electric, autonomous operation inherently reduces the carbon footprint and noise pollution associated with traditional gas-powered mowers. However, the benefits extend further into the realm of garden health.

The Particle System's mulching capability is a key feature for environmentally conscious gardeners. By returning finely shredded clippings to the lawn, it creates a natural, slow-release fertilizer that enriches the soil, improves moisture retention, and reduces the need for chemical treatments. This practice fosters a more resilient and self-sustaining lawn ecosystem.

Furthermore, the N Series' ability to sweep and collect leaves in the fall addresses another aspect of sustainable yard care. Instead of blowing leaves away or bagging them for municipal collection, homeowners can easily gather them for composting, turning seasonal yard waste into a valuable resource for their gardens. This full-cycle approach—from cutting to cleaning to composting—positions ANTHBOT not just as a labor-saving device, but as a partner in holistic and responsible garden management.

With an early-bird promotion already underway and full availability planned for the spring, ANTHBOT is not just making a statement at CES; it is setting a new benchmark for the entire industry. By looking past the simple act of mowing to deliver a truly clean, healthy, and finished lawn, the company is poised to make a lasting impact on how we care for our outdoor spaces.
