The brand behind a best-selling robot vacuum range that sucks up more dirt and debris than ever before has added a new piece of robotics to their impressive lineup, in the form of a robotic lawn mower that will look after the grass in your garden.
ECOVACS’ new GOAT G1 Robotic Lawn Mower ($2,999; Amazon) brings boundary-free, advanced mapping and AI-led obstacle avoidance to the world of lawn mowing.
And the result is a lawn mower that’s a cut above the rest when it comes to performance.

While pricey, the new robotic gadget allows users to quickly and effortlessly mow their lawn, without having to set annoying boundaries as you would with a normal robot lawn mower, and without any of the other hassle.
With the GOAT G1, electronic wire boundaries are replaced by ultra-wideband signal beacons strategically placed around the edge of the lawn.
This allows boundaries to be set within the app, improving the task’s efficiency by 80 per cent.
Not only this, but the GOAT G1 uses unique AIVI 3D technology powered by a 150-degree visual angle fisheye camera so that it can easily avoid objects as small as 3-15 cm, such as pets, hoses, and stones.
It is also able to avoid 15cm+ objects like swings and trees via another sensor.
“We know Australians love their gardens, and there is great pride by many in keeping them pristine,” Karen Powell, Regional Director of Australia and New Zealand for ECOVACS, said in a statement.
“We also know that, just with home cleaning, lawn maintenance can be a hard and laborious task that many don’t enjoy, or sometimes can’t perform themselves.”
She added: “As we have done with floor care and window cleaning, we are bringing new robotic innovation to the Australian outdoors for the first time, with the GOAT G1 exceeding the capabilities of existing robotic and manual lawnmowers by a substantial margin.
“With its state-of-the-art features and cutting-edge precision and safety technologies, GOAT G1 epitomises our commitment to simplify and add further convenience and time-saving into our everyday lives.”
The gadget, which is available on Amazon for $2,999 right now, already boasts a four star rating from those who have tried it elsewhere in the world.
ECOVACS was one of the first companies in the world to develop and engineer service robots.
In the 25 years since the inception, the company has successfully launched a comprehensive range of domestic service robots, such as the Deebot robot vacuum cleaner, Winbot window cleaner and Airbot air purifier robot.
