Get Expert Robot Mower Advice for Your Lawn
The Kress KR281E EyePilot® 4×4 RTKn is a powerful robotic mower designed for complex lawns up to 1,500 m². Combining satellite-guided navigation, Vision AI, and true 4-wheel drive, it handles steep slopes, uneven terrain, and intricate garden layouts with ease.
Unlike traditional robotic mowers, the KR281E operates without boundary wires, antennas, or garden beacons, making installation faster and far less disruptive to your lawn.
The result is perfect stripes, precise navigation, and fully autonomous mowing every day.
For decades, robotic mowers required buried boundary wires to stay within the mowing area.
The Kress RTKn system used by the KR281E eliminates this completely.
Instead, the mower navigates using satellite positioning combined with correction data from the Kress RTKn network, creating accurate virtual boundaries.
That means:
✔ No digging trenches for wires
✔ No broken boundary cables
✔ No antennas installed on your property
✔ No complicated garden beacons
Just simple setup and precise satellite-guided mowing.
Unlike many RTK robotic mowers that require a base station installed on your home or lawn, Kress uses its own RTKn satellite correction network.
Each antenna in the network supports mowers within a radius of up to 60 km, allowing the KR281E to maintain centimetre-level positioning accuracy across your lawn.
The KR281E follows a systematic mowing pattern, cutting the lawn in clean parallel lines rather than random movements.
This produces:
• beautifully aligned lawn stripes
• faster mowing efficiency
• consistent cutting results
• healthier, denser grass
Frequent mowing is widely recognised by turf professionals as the key to a healthier and more attractive lawn.
The KR281E features a powerful 4-wheel drive system, allowing it to maintain traction even on steep or uneven lawns.
It can confidently handle slopes up to:
83.9% (40°)
making it ideal for gardens with banks, hills, or challenging terrain.
The mower’s central shaft design ensures all four wheels remain in contact with the ground, providing stability and control on:
• uneven ground
• soft lawns
• rough terrain
The KR281E features Kress ZeroTrim technology, allowing the mower to cut extremely close to lawn edges.
Edges can be trimmed down to 0–2 cm, reducing the need for manual strimming and leaving a clean, professional finish.
The TurfSteer steering system enables smooth, controlled turns that protect the grass from scuffing or tearing.
This allows the KR281E to navigate tight garden layouts and obstacles while maintaining a flawless lawn finish.
The KR281E features a Stereo Vision camera system, providing enhanced obstacle detection and navigation accuracy.
When satellite signals are temporarily weakened by trees or buildings, the mower uses V-SLAM vision technology combined with inertial navigation to stay precisely on course until the full satellite signal returns.
The KR281E integrates Kress EyePilot® Vision AI with RTKn satellite precision, delivering intelligent autonomous mowing even in complex environments.
This technology provides:
• advanced obstacle detection
• reliable navigation in difficult gardens
• improved safety
• commercial-grade mowing accuracy
