Mammotion is upgrading its flagship robotic lawnmower with its new lidar-equipped navigation system, allowing it to generate a live 3D map of your yard while it mows. The company revealed the Luba 3 AWD, which comes with lidar sensors that can scan “from the ground to the treetops” with centimeter-level accuracy, during CES 2026.
The lidar system is part of Mammotion’s “Tri-Fusion” system that combines lidar, geopositioning technology, and an AI chip that uses built-in cameras to analyze your yard for more accurate navigation. Though Mammotion’s Luba Mini AWD lidar was the first to come with the tri-sensor tech, the company says the Luba 3 AWD has an even more powerful version.
The Luba 3 AWD’s lidar system offers a 360-degree horizontal field of view and a 59-degree vertical field that can scan up to 330 feet to create a map of your yard with centimeter-level accuracy. Along with lidar, the Luba 3 AWD has dual 1080p cameras and an upgraded AI chip with 10 TOPS of AI performance, giving it the ability to recognize pets, toys, and more than 300 obstacles throughout your yard in shade or sunlight, according to Mammotion. It also uses a geopositioning technology, called NetRTK (Real-Time Kinematics), that connects to 4G networks or Wi-Fi to navigate your lawn without the need for physical base stations or wires.
The cutting specs on the Luba 3 AWD haven’t changed much, as it features a slightly larger 15.8-inch cutting width (up from 15.7 on the Luba 2 AWD), dual six-blade discs, and four independently driven motors that can climb 80 percent (38.6-degree) slopes. It comes with a 15Ah battery, making it capable of mowing up to 7,000 square feet per hour (and up to 1.75 acres per day).
Mammotion is bringing its upgraded processor to its Luba Mini 2 AWD robot mower, too, which comes with three AI-powered cameras and a new side disc that uses three mini blades to trim the edges of walls, fences, and flower beds. The Yuka Mini 2 features Mammotion’s new AI chip as well, offering either a lidar and AI-powered navigation for “precise, boundary-free mapping” or a three-camera system that Mammotion says can handle “most common conditions.”
The Luba 3 AWD starts at $2,399 / £2,099 / €2,299 and is available for preorder in North America, the UK, and the EU. It comes in four models with maximum mowing sizes ranging from 0.37 to 2.5 acres. Meanwhile, the Luba Mini 2 AWD starts at £1,399 / €1,499 and is available for preorder in the UK and the EU, with a release in North America to follow. The Yuka Mini 2 is launching in the US for $1,399 with a variation designed for cutting larger lawns, while four different versions are coming to the UK and the EU, starting at £749 / €799.
