Announcement
Two launch reports on November 5, 2025 said ANTHBOT had presented four robot mowers planned for 2026: the M5, M5 LiDAR, N8 and N8 LiDAR. One states ANTHBOT presented the lineup on the X platform.
N8 Series Concept
Per one report, the N8 series is designed as a 4-in-1 robot that mows and also collects clippings and removes leaves and other garden debris. Another describes two N8 variants: a standard RTK version with an antenna and a LiDAR version without one.
Navigation
Launch coverage reports the LiDAR models operate entirely without a GPS antenna in the garden, and that the lineup is described with Dual Vision for detecting and avoiding obstacles in real time. It notes that concrete prices and a sale start had not been announced.
