BERLIN, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MAMMOTION, the pioneer in smart outdoor robotics, returns to IFA 2026 with a groundbreaking lineup that takes garden automation all the way to the edge. Headlined by the new flagship LUBA 4 AWD series robotic lawn mower alongside the innovative Maston commercial robotic mowing solution, MAMMOTION's full suite of new solutions will be showcased throughout IFA 2026 at the MAMMOTION booths (Indoor: Hall 9, Booth 123; Outdoor: OCG-141).
As robotic mowing enters its next stage of maturity, the new benchmark goes beyond simply proving autonomous mowing works, but perfecting the details that determine whether a lawn is simply cut or professionally maintained. Guided by a decade of innovation and shaped by millions of real-world user interactions, MAMMOTION has enhanced its new lineup to tackle the industry's toughest edge cases. The result is more precise navigation, gentler handling, and more complete edge coverage. MAMMOTION's next-generation technologies, including the updated Tri-Fusion navigation system and front-wheel steering with bidirectional driving, enable smarter positioning and turf-friendly maneuvers, while new edge-cutting solutions help finish lawn borders with fewer gaps.
"True automation isn't just about starting the job—it's about finishing it intelligently and purposefully," said Jayden Wei, CEO of MAMMOTION. "At IFA 2026, we are taking outdoor automation all the way to the edge—not only by tackling the edge cases that have long limited robotic mowing, but by redefining what autonomous lawn care can achieve. Our mission remains clear: to make autonomous lawn care more thoughtful and refined, delivering a tailored, gardener-standard level of care across every type of landscape."
LUBA 4 AWD Series: The Proactive Robot Gardener for Complex Lawns
MAMMOTION is breaking new ground in autonomous lawn care with the LUBA 4 AWD, redefining what homeowners can expect from a robotic mower. Moving beyond standard automated tools that only cover the middle of the lawn, the LUBA 4 AWD acts as a proactive gardener that takes lawn care all the way to the edge—pushing the boundaries of intelligent navigation, turf protection, and zero manual touch border trimming to deliver a truly complete, professional-grade finish.
Building on MAMMOTION's centimeter-level Tri-Fusion navigation system, the LUBA 4 AWD upgrades its perception with a four-camera array covering the front, sides, and rear. By integrating 360° LiDAR, NetRTK, and a high‑precision vision system, the robot establishes a triple‑redundancy sensing architecture where each sensor serves as a real‑time backup for the others – delivering maximum stability with zero dead zones and zero drift. This fused spatial awareness enables the robot to seamlessly interpret complex outdoor environments, react to obstacles in real time, and plan optimal paths even under dense canopy shade or low‑light conditions.
LUBA 4 AWD is designed to better nurture the lawn with bidirectional driving with independent front-wheel steering. Guided by front and rear cameras with 360° LiDAR, it changes direction seamlessly without needing forced U-turns, eliminating pivot pressure and turf tearing. Each wheel turns through a clean arc rather than scrubbing, leaving no brown rings or visible tracks on delicate grass.
The new robot also addresses the industry's most persistent pain point: untrimmed lawn borders. A dedicated edge-cutting accessory enables LUBA 4 AWD to trim flush against walls, fences, and garden borders, ensuring complete edge coverage and eliminates the need for manual string trimming altogether.
The LUBA 4 AWD range is available in three versions, recommended for lawn areas from 0.75 acres (3,000 m²) to 3 acres (12,000 m²). Regional model availability and specifications for LUBA 4 AWD series may vary by market. Pricing and channel availability will be available later this year.
Maston Series: An All-in-one Professional Robotic Mowing Solution
For professional users, MAMMOTION is showcasing Maston commercial robotic mowing solution, a unified platform that is designed to bring greater automation and efficiency to large-scale grounds management.
The Maston series combines robotic mowing hardware with fleet management capabilities, allowing multiple machines to coordinate work across large areas through the MAMMOTION Fleet Management platform. Professionals can manage their fleet from a centralized dashboard while monitoring mowing performance and accessing remote diagnostics.
Powered by MAMMOTION's Tri-Fusion 2.0 Intelligent Perception System, Maston maintains pinpoint positioning and reliable path planning across challenging, expansive terrain. The series also offers two cutter configurations for different applications: Maston Rotary is designed for dense brush and heavy clearing in overgrown areas, while Maston Flail is designed for fine turf maintenance, including applications requiring a high-quality finish.
Maintenance is further simplified by the robot's modular design, where key components like cutting discs, sensors, wheels, and the battery feature standard quick-release interfaces for fast field repairs without disassembly. To ensure maximum uptime for continuous operation, the Maston series is equipped with a 500W high-efficiency fast-charging station, significantly reducing charging intervals and keeping fleets working productively throughout the day.
The Maston series is now available for pre-order through authorized European and Australian distributors. Regional models and specifications may vary. For purchasing or dealership opportunities, visit www.mammotion.com or contact distribution@mammotion.com

MAMMOTION Pushes Robotic Lawn Mowing to the Edge for Homeowners and Professionals at IFA 2026
SINGAPORE, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Visa, a global leader in digital payments and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) have signed a three-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to strengthen Singapore's appeal as a preferred travel destination and to unlock new growth opportunities. The collaboration will focus on three key pillars – driving discovery of Singapore's tourism products, especially its dining and night-time experiences; deriving insights to identify high-value tourism opportunities; and developing co-branded marketing campaigns to build brand preference for both Visa and Singapore.
Visa also announced that Singapore will be part of Visa Destinations, and the collaboration will leverage Visa Destinations as a platform to introduce strategic partnerships, flagship initiatives and experiences across Singapore's tourism precincts and high-yield traveller segments.
Visa Destinations is a global travel programme designed to elevate how travellers discover and experience the world's most iconic destinations. Singapore is the second country to launch Visa Destinations in Asia Pacific, following Thailand which was introduced in July this year. Other cities include London, New York, and Paris, reinforcing the city's position as a leading travel hub. The programme will commence in Singapore in November this year.
Curating distinctively local experiences to inspire discovery of Singapore
The first pillar of collaboration will focus on benefits and experiences for travellers across tourism industries including attractions, dining, entertainment, retail and tours, which are key categories of spend.
Visa's data shows that shopping and dining are significant contributors to traveller spend. This reinforces the importance of curating meaningful experiences that give travellers compelling reasons to return to Singapore, particularly as repeat visitors spend approximately four times more than first-time visitors[1]. Visa's spend trend data and insights can sharpen the understanding of visitor segments, source markets and experiences with the greatest potential to drive higher-value demand, deeper exploration and repeat travel.
Visa and STB will also work closely to curate offers that showcase local businesses across tourism precincts, including building on an existing partnership with Pelago by Singapore Airlines to promote attractions and tours, supported by seamless, secure payment experiences throughout the visitor journey. These include introducing benefits and experience packages for Visa cardholders globally through the Visa Destinations platform at key attractions in Singapore.
The partnership will also spotlight Singapore's vibrant night-time experiences, with both parties collaborating to drive demand, including building on an existing collaboration with Grab. Singapore's night-time dynamism is a compelling part of its destination appeal, with flagship events such as the Singapore Grand Prix creating opportunities for visitors to experience the city after dark. The latest data from Visa indicated that during the F1™[2] Singapore Night Race 2026 race week, there was uplift in spend on restaurant and entertainment categories by two-thirds. Spending grew throughout the day, where evening spend climbed by almost half between 7pm and 11pm, and nearly doubled between 11pm and 5am[3].
Harnessing insights and targeted campaigns to drive high-value tourism
The second pillar will focus on harnessing tourism insights to identify high-value tourism opportunities through rich insights from Visa's global network of cardholder data and analytics capabilities.
Visa data shows that some of the largest inbound travel corridors to Singapore amongst Visa cardholders include Australia, Indonesia, Mainland China, Malaysia and the United States[4]. This aligns with STB's visitor arrival data, where these markets are among the largest source markets of visitors to Singapore. As there are common markets of interest, pooling available market data will allow both parties to develop a deeper understanding of visitor behaviour and preferences, tailor more targeted initiatives in response, and ensure efforts are focused on markets and segments with the highest potential for high-value tourism growth.
The third pillar of cooperation will see Visa and STB develop co-branded marketing campaigns anchored on the brand strengths of Visa Destinations and STB's Passion Made Possible. The partners will roll out initiatives across key source markets, supported by destination-led storytelling, co-marketing activities and in-destination activations. These efforts will combine tailored travel content with exclusive access and experiences for Visa cardholders, building on the success of past campaigns such as Visa-STB-Pelago's 'Seasons. Made in Singapore' and 'Non-stop Fun' which built on STB's 'Made in Singapore' and 'We Don't Wait For Fun' campaigns.
"Singapore is already a world-class destination with strong global appeal. Our partnership with the Singapore Tourism Board is about converting that appeal into deeper engagement, bringing together STB's destination expertise with Visa's global network, travel insights and partnerships to inspire more international travellers to visit and return," said Adeline Kim, Group Country Manager, Regional Southeast Asia, & SVP, Global Clients, Asia Pacific, Visa. "Visa Destinations will help turn inspiration into action by connecting our cardholders with benefits, exclusive access and distinctive experiences across attractions, dining, entertainment, retail and tours. Together, we can make every stage of the journey more rewarding and seamless, while helping visitors discover more of Singapore and supporting the country's ambition for high-value tourism growth," she added.
"As travellers today increasingly seek more personalised and distinctive experiences, Singapore continues to evolve to inspire new discoveries with every visit. This partnership with Visa brings together its global reach, insights and network of partners with STB's destination expertise to curate compelling, high-quality experiences and data-driven marketing campaigns that resonate with travellers' interests. Through this collaboration, we aim to create more opportunities for our tourism businesses and advance STB's Tourism 2040 priorities through impactful, high-quality tourism growth," said Melissa Ow, Chief Executive, Singapore Tourism Board.
