BERLIN, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Yarbo is raising the bar of professional yard care through modular innovation, making smart, multifunctional, effortless care accessible to every home. From September 4 to 8, Yarbo will bring its expanding portfolio of modular yard robots to IFA 2026, where the final version of the M Series will make its first offline public appearance. Designed for standard residential yards, the M Series brings intelligent yard care to a broader range of homes. Together with the Y Series, engineered for large properties, Yarbo's modular platform now serves yards of different sizes and a growing range of applications, from mowing and snow clearing to leaf collection and more.
M Series: Compact by Design, Capable by Nature
With a smaller footprint and simplified setup, the M Series is designed to lower the barrier to yard automation while making outdoor maintenance simpler and more adaptable.
Compact Size. Sure-footed. Strong Performance. The M Series features a more compact form factor, allowing for greater flexibility in deployment. Its tracked chassis provides stable traction across wet grass, dirt, stone pavers, and mixed surfaces, while supporting slopes of up to approximately 35°/70% grade and steps or edges of around 2 inches (5 cm). Together, these capabilities provide reliable mobility and performance across complex outdoor environments. The M Series also offers a light-duty towing capacity of up to approximately 220 lbs (100 kg), allowing it to pull small carts, tools, and future accessories.
Set Up, Charge, Finish — All Faster. With Data Center Gen2, NetRTK, and optional LiDAR, the M Series requires no traditional boundary wires and can complete initial placement, mapping, and basic setup in approximately 30 minutes. Its high-speed wireless charging system can recharge from 10% to 90% in around 65 minutes, while auto-charging and task-resume functionality help the M20/M20i mow up to 1.5 acres per day, delivering a seamless and effortless experience for users.
Bringing Intelligent Yard Care Solutions to More Homes
Yarbo's vision has always been to bring automation to yard work traditionally done by hand. It started with Yarbo's first robotic snow blower, turning the once-futuristic idea of autonomous snow clearing into reality.
From there, Yarbo set out to take yard automation beyond a single task. Its "1+N" modular approach brings mowing, snow clearing, leaf collection and more onto one robotic platform, with one universal Core pairing with interchangeable modules for different yard-care needs. Yarbo is actively advancing this shift, helping shape a new direction for year-round yard maintenance.
The market response has also reflected the appeal of this modular approach. This year, the M Series raised over $3.6 million from 850 backers through crowdfunding, underscoring growing demand for more versatile, multi-purpose yard-care solutions.
See It. Experience It.
At IFA 2026, visitors can experience Yarbo across two exhibition spaces: H9-122 indoors and OCG-137 outdoors. Both locations will feature interactive experiences, giving visitors a firsthand look at Yarbo's modular design and yard-care capabilities. The M Series will be showcased with the Mower, Snow Blower and Collector modules, with future additions including the Trimmer and Smart Assist modules further expanding the platform across seasons and outdoor tasks.
Moving forward, Yarbo will continue to expand its modular ecosystem and explore new possibilities. To learn more, please visit yarbo.com.

Yarbo Brings the M Series to Life at IFA 2026, From CES Prototype to Real Product, in Your Hands
HONG KONG, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The 10th Start of Autumn Speech, "New Species Explosion: Wu Sheng Business Methodology Release 2026," was held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. Under the theme "I Carry the Universe with Me," the event spotlighted the latest breakthroughs in AI and robotics, exploring the technological metamorphosis of daily life. As a key strategic partner, world-leading bathroom brand JOMOO officially launched its landmark X80 AI Robotic Hand Smart Toilet alongside a suite of localized bathroom solutions engineered specifically for the Hong Kong market.
Understanding the "Hong Kong Context": Resolving High-Density Urban Challenges Wu Sheng, founder of Scene Laboratory and creator of the Scene Methodology, highlighted JOMOO as the premier case study for urban context design: "Anchored in urban environments and daily pain points, JOMOO provides comprehensive space solutions tailored to Hong Kong's unique landscape. This demonstrates the profound insight of Chinese bathroom brands in the AI era."
Rather than exporting standardized products, JOMOO conducted extensive local R&D to tackle Hong Kong's distinct urban conditions:
- Dual-Waterway Seawater Smart Toilet: Designed specifically for Hong Kong's seawater flushing infrastructure, this toilet uses fresh water for personal hygiene and seawater for flushing. It has earned salt spray corrosion resistance certification from the Hong Kong Water Supplies Department.
- Zero-Pressure Flushing & Thermostatic Boosters: Integrated zero-water-pressure flushing and thermostatic pressurized showers resolve pressure fluctuations common in high-rise residential buildings.
- Aerosol-Blocking Foam Shield: Addresses high-density living concerns by creating a dense foam barrier that prevents aerosol transmission between floors.
X80 AI Robotic Hand: The Pinnacle of Bathroom Automation The highlight of the launch, the X80 AI Robotic Hand Smart Toilet, leverages advanced AI algorithms and six robotic hand systems to deliver fully automated operation—including touchless multi-layer lid opening, dynamic lifting, AI self-cleaning, and dual-vortex flushing. As Wu Sheng noted, the X80 can effectively "brush itself," fulfilling JOMOO's core design philosophy: "The best state of technology is being invisible."
Strategic Alliance with Leisure Plus: Star-Level Service and 6-Hour Express Installation To complement hardware innovation with premium localized service, JOMOO partnered with Leisure Plus, a trusted building materials enterprise rooted in Hong Kong for nearly 30 years.
To address the long, complex renovation cycles typical of older local buildings, Leisure Plus introduced a one-stop "Partial Bathroom Renewal in as Fast as 6 Hours" service, complete with territory-wide free delivery and a dedicated installation team. Setting a new industry benchmark, the partnership offers a 5-year smart toilet warranty and an 8-year faucet warranty, supported by 24/7 online customer care—making replacing a toilet as effortless as changing clothes.
Through its deep commitment to localized execution in Hong Kong, JOMOO and Leisure Plus offer a global blueprint for Chinese brands expanding overseas, proving that the pinnacle of AI intelligence lies in precise, thoughtful human experience.
