Kress Launches New EyePilot® 4x4 Robotic Mowers — A Major Leap in Autonomous Lawn Care

The Future of Lawn Care Has Arrived

The landscaping industry is undergoing a major transformation, and Kress is leading the charge with the release of its EyePilot® 4x4 RTK robotic mower series.

Designed for real-world conditions—not just ideal lawns—these new models combine:

  • RTK satellite precision

  • AI-powered vision technology

  • True 4-wheel drive capability

The result? A robotic mower that finally works on complex, sloped, and large properties without the limitations of traditional systems.

Automation Hub is proud to now offer and support the full lineup of Kress EyePilot robotic mowers across the United States.


What Makes the Kress EyePilot Series Different?

Most robotic mowers on the market today struggle with:

  • Slopes

  • Tree cover and signal loss

  • Complex lawn layouts

  • Boundary wire installation

The new Kress EyePilot® series eliminates all of these challenges.


1. No Boundary Wires Required

Unlike traditional robotic mowers, EyePilot uses:

  • RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) positioning

  • Vision-based mapping

This allows for wire-free installation, reducing setup time and eliminating one of the biggest pain points in robotic mowing.


2. True 4x4 Traction for Extreme Terrain

The new EyePilot 4x4 models are built for real-world landscapes:

  • Handles slopes up to 84% (≈40°)

  • Maintains traction on uneven terrain

  • Articulated design keeps all wheels grounded

This is a major upgrade over standard robotic mowers, which often fail on slopes or soft ground.


3. AI Vision Navigation

Each mower is equipped with:

  • Stereo camera system

  • Intelligent object detection

  • Obstacle avoidance

Even in areas where GPS signals are weak—like under trees or near buildings—the mower continues operating using Vision AI.


4. RTK Precision Without Extra Infrastructure

Kress has simplified RTK deployment by eliminating the need for:

  • External antennas

  • Base stations

  • Complex installations

This makes EyePilot one of the most user-friendly RTK robotic mowing systems available.
