Yes, LiDAR robot mowers generally work best where there are plenty of fixed obstacles, such as trees and buildings, to use as reference points. They can also perform well on undulating ground and do not rely on mobile phone coverage.

However, modern RTK mowers with AI cameras can also navigate very effectively around trees and other obstacles, even where satellite signal may be challenging. If you need a mower soon, you may not need to wait for a LiDAR version—just ensure the model is suitable for your slopes and has good obstacle-recognition technology. Mark
