New technology for easy, flexible robotic mowing

Husqvarna EPOS (Exact Positioning Operating System) is a breakthrough technology for a new series of professional Automower® robotic lawn mowers. The satellite-based technology enables the mowers to work within virtual boundaries. This makes it an easy and flexible solution. Perfect for football pitches, golf courses, city parks, company real estates – and all other places that deal with changing circumstances and needs. Also, the absence of physical boundary wires means problem-free aerating, scarifying and turf repair.

The image below shows how it works.

How it works

1. Mobile app

   Use your mobile phone and the app to set up the installation, and define work areas and stay-out zones.

2. Stay-out zone

   Define temporary or permanent stay-out zones by using the appDrive function in the mobile app to drive the mower around areas that shall not be mowed.

3. Satellite signals

   Satellite signals are received by both the mower and the reference station. To achieve up to centimeter level accuracy a technique called RTK-GNSS is used. It enhances the precision of satellite position data.

4. Navigation satellites

   Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) provides satellite signals to the mower and the reference station. A minimum of four satellite signals are needed for both the mower and the reference station. The following GNSS satellite systems are used: GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo.

5. Virtual boundary

   Define the mower’s work area by using appDrive function in the mobile app to drive the mower around the area that shall be mowed.

6. Correction data

   Correction data from the reference station is required to operate the mower at all times and to keep a high level of accuracy of the mower’s position.

7. Charging station

   The place where the mower automatically returns to recharge its batteries.

8. Reference station

   A fixed reference station is required to reach a high precision of the mower’s position. The reference station broadcasts correction data to the mower.

The sky is the limit. Literally speaking.

All you need is your mobile phone and the Husqvarna EPOS app. By using the phone, you’re able to set virtual boundaries and create one or several work areas for the robotic mower. All that’s required is an unimpeded sky view to ensure optimal technical conditions. Our sophisticated satellite technology Husqvarna EPOS delivers centimeter level accuracy in seconds. Combined with the included reference station this enables the robotic mower to efficiently mow any grass area.

Easy fleet management at your fingertips

With Husqvarna EPOS you’ll get a robust installation that contribute to make your every workday easier. Using your mobile phone, you’re able to activate and de-active stay-out zones. Thanks to Husqvarna Fleet Services™, our digital management tool, you’ll always know where the mower is, how much you’ve used it and when it needs to be serviced or replaced – and much more. All this updated information, easily accessible in your phone or tablet, helps to ensure a hassle-free and productive business.
