1 INTRODUCTION

EN

In the following section, we aim to explain how NOVABOT operates. Equipped with AI and multiple sensors, it can autonomously handle complex scenarios.

Multi-map Mowing
NOVABOT can mow multiple(currently up to three) lawns in succession, intelligently planning the mowing path for efficient completion.

2 Intelligent Mowing
NOVABOT is capable of intelligent mowing, which involves using panoramic vision, inertial navigation, RTK GPS, and visual perception technology to achieve intelligent mapping, charging, mowing, and obstacle avoidance functions. Additionally, NOVABOT can adjust the mowing height to meet the personalized needs of our users.

AI

Auto Recharging
If the battery is running low, NOVABOT will automatically pause the task and return to the charging station. Once fully charged, NOVABOT will either resume its unfinished mowing task or stay at the charging station, depending on its mowing schedule.

Obstacle Avoidance
NOVABOT's AI cameras detect obstacles, preventing interference. Obstacle areas can be set in the NOVABOT App to avoid disruption of normal work.

Schedule
You can set mowing and security schedules in the NOVABOT APP, allowing NOVABOT to automatically mow the lawn or activate watchdog mode based on the specified schedules.

6 PIN Code Protection
The PIN code is used to prevent theft and unauthorized use. If the machine malfunctions or the STOP button is pressed, NOVABOT will lock and require the PIN code to unlock.

Watchdog Mode
NOVABOT will initiate security patrols near the entrance as required.
