NexLawn Master X Vision Lawn Mower Comes Equipped with a Robotic Arm, Does More Than Mow

A robotic lawn mower glides across a yard, silently cutting the grass to the perfect height. But what if it could also clear away stray branches, pluck ripe apples from a tree or toss a ball for your dog? NexLawn’s Master X Vision, unveiled at IFA 2025 in Berlin, this concept device, developed by NexLawn in partnership with MOVA (a sub-brand of Dreame), adds a robotic arm that turns it into a garden assistant.

Mounted on a 25 cm tall, four-wheel-drive chassis, the Master X Vision is built for rough terrain. Its all-wheel-drive system, with spiky rear wheels and omnidirectional front wheels, suggests it can handle uneven lawns with ease. Most robotic mowers use boundary wires or basic sensors, but this one uses 3D LiDAR and stereo vision for wire-free navigation. It maps your yard with precision, dodging obstacles like flower beds or garden gnomes.

This arm, which folds down to 44.5 cm for tight spaces and extends up to 77 cm—reaches a full meter from the ground—brings a new level of functionality. NexLawn has designed three interchangeable attachments so far: a multi-gripper claw, a trimmer head and an edging disc. The gripper is the star. It can pick up sticks, toys or other debris that would normally stop a mower in its tracks. Beyond clearing its path, it can pluck low-hanging fruit or even water flowers. The trimmer and edging disc can handle weeds and refine lawn edges, so you won’t need to do follow-up work.

At IFA 2025, it was powered by a tethered charger, like a laptop cord, which isn’t practical for a roaming garden bot. The promotional materials show it docking with an outdoor charger or rolling over a wireless charging pad, so I assume a battery powered future. NexLawn hasn’t shared details on battery life or charging times, but a production model would need a robust power system to support mowing and arm operations.

Navigation and control is where the Master X Vision excels. The LiDAR and stereo vision can handle complex yard layouts without the hassle of buried wires. It can detect over 300 types of obstacles in real time, from tree roots to scattered toys and adjust its path accordingly. You can adjust mowing height, patterns and safety settings through the NexLawn app which promises a seamless interface. For larger lawns up to 3,000 square meters the mower’s all-wheel-drive system can tackle slopes of 80% and for smaller yards it can slip through 60 cm paths, not every robotic mower can do that.
