Navigation
The RockNeo Q2 LiDAR uses Roborock’s Sentisphere LiDAR environmental-perception system to build a spatial map of the yard, removing the need for a buried perimeter wire or an external RTK reference antenna during setup. ReactiVision Fusion is described as identifying and maneuvering around yard obstructions in real time.
Coverage and Terrain
The mower handles yards up to 800 m2 (8,611 sq ft), slopes up to a 45% incline, and passages as narrow as 23.6 in. A floating cutting deck follows terrain changes, and the PreciEdge module is specified to cut within 1.2 in of a lawn boundary. The unit carries an IPX6 water-resistance rating and supports Amazon Alexa and Google Home.
Availability
Announced 3 Sep 2026 at IFA Berlin. No pricing or ship date was given. Coverage describes current availability as EU-only, with US timing unconfirmed.
