Navigation and Mapping
The Skope 800 AI-VISION uses a multi-camera system paired with what Litheli calls NEO-FSD navigation logic to map lawn boundaries and terrain without a perimeter wire or an RTK base station, according to the company’s CES 2026 press materials. The mower is described as identifying edges, corners, and terrain changes during operation and resuming an interrupted mow from the point where it stopped.
Obstacle Detection
Litheli’s release states the onboard AI recognizes more than 200 object types, including people and pets, and reroutes around them during operation. No independent test of the detection system’s accuracy or failure modes has been published.
Power and Coverage
A 5.0 Ah Infinity Power Share (IPS) lithium-ion battery, shared across Litheli’s other cordless outdoor tools, is rated to cover lawns of 8,600 to 10,800 sq ft, roughly 0.2 to 0.25 acres, per charge. Litheli lists a maximum slope tolerance of 22 percent, sub-60 dB(A) operating noise, and IPX6 water resistance with rain sensing.
Commercial Status
Litheli showed the Skope 800 AI-VISION on the show floor at CES 2026 alongside its CyberMower M21 walk-behind mower, which separately received a CES Innovation Awards 2026 honoree recognition. The Skope 800 itself was not named an award honoree. No price or release date has been announced for the Skope 800.
