LiDAR
Onboard laser mapping works without a satellite antenna and is usually the safer starting point under trees or beside tall buildings. It still needs clear physical edges around drops and water.

What ownership still involves
You will still trim some edges, clear sticks and toys, clean the mower, replace blades, rescue unusual failures, maintain the dock and manually move most models between disconnected lawns.
Buying basics
LiDAR, vision or RTK?
Open guide +
RTK + vision
RTK delivers precise straight lines in open sky. Cameras help around weak spots and obstacles, but do not make every covered corridor reliable. Station position matters on models that use one.
Network RTK
Some mowers use a correction network instead of a station on the house. That simplifies hardware but introduces mobile-coverage and service-term questions.
AWD and tracks
Headline slope ratings are not the whole story. AWD helps on steep or uneven ground; tracks add traction and weight. Wet buffalo or soft soil can still reduce real-world grip.
Australian grasses
Buffalo and kikuyu are not compatibility badges. Dense growth needs cutting-height range, mowing frequency and motor headroom. Full rotary blades suit heavier work but add weight and risk.
Children and pets
Object detection reduces collisions; it does not make moving blades safe. Clear toys, sticks and hoses, schedule away from play time, and never encourage interaction.
Front and rear lawns
Virtual maps can include zones and paved transit routes, but a mower cannot climb steps or safely cross a road. Disconnected lawns usually still mean carrying it.
Edges and ownership
Expect some whipper-snipping, cleaning, replacement blades, dock maintenance and occasional rescue. No robot turns the lawn into a zero-maintenance appliance.
Australian catalogue scope
Wire-free residential models need Australian manufacturer or authorised-retailer evidence. Area and slope figures are manufacturer claims; confirm the exact model, warranty and included hardware.
