Safe sports fields.
Without an extra crew.
Schools, colleges and universities want well-kept sports and playing fields but rarely have their own maintenance crew. An autonomous robot keeps the grounds neat, works outside lesson times and is safe on a campus where many people pass by.
What every grounds manager recognises.
A robot takes over the repetitive work, without extra staff or complicated scheduling.
No grounds crew of their own
Maintenance is outsourced or ends up with the facilities department, which already has plenty of other tasks.
Safety on campus
Pupils and students are everywhere. Heavy machines during lesson times are not an option.
Few free moments
Sports fields are in use during the day. Maintenance has to fit into evenings, weekends and holidays.
A sustainable example
Schools want not only to teach sustainability but also to show it, including in how the grounds are maintained.
The robot follows your schedule.
You decide when the machine works. These are the three most common scenarios.
After school hours
The robot mows in the evening and at weekends, when the grounds are empty.
Before sports day
Lines for football, athletics or a school sports day are loaded digitally and marked autonomously.
Safe in between
If the machine detects an obstacle on its route, it slows down or stops. You follow everything live in the app.

What schools & universities ask us.
Is the robot safe around children? +
The machine recognises people and obstacles and slows down, steers around or stops. Still, we recommend scheduling it outside lesson times and breaks. That way you combine technical safety with a safe schedule.
Can the robot also mark lines for sports activities? +
Yes. Field plans for different sports are loaded digitally, so the robot marks the right lines on demand.
What if the grounds are not used during the holidays? +
You adjust the schedule in the app: mow less often, or plan a big maintenance round for the new school year.
Is leasing possible for schools? +
Yes. With operational leasing you spread the cost over the term; maintenance is arranged separately with a service plan. We make a proposal based on your area and use.
