MOVA Announces Next-Generation Robotics Technologies at IFA 2026

MOVA Announces Next-Generation Robotics Technologies at IFA 2026

MOVA introduced 22 new products and 15 innovative technologies at IFA 2026 in Berlin. Here are the details.

MOVA participated in the global technology arena IFA 2026 with the theme “The AI ​​​​MOVAment.” The brand launched a total of 22 global products in the categories of smart outdoor devices, home cleaning equipment, kitchen solutions, pet care products, and artificial intelligence that can physically interact with its environments, while also presenting 15 new technologies for visitors to examine.

The company, which appeared before users in a fair area exceeding 1,700 square meters, aims to integrate artificial intelligence directly into the concrete needs of daily life, going beyond a digital command structure.

Among the technologies introduced, the brand’s first lawn mowing robot with a robotic arm, AstraX, the “electronic skin” infrastructure that creates a sense of touch in robot vacuum cleaners, and the Knot 80 robotic hand mechanism with advanced gripping ability stand out. These systems, which combine perception, reasoning, and action processes under a single umbrella, demonstrate how artificial intelligence processes information and translates it into physical action in real-world conditions.

Touch Sense in Robot Vacuum Cleaners: TactiPercept™ System

Traditional robot vacuum cleaners mostly rely on cameras to analyze the environment and radar/sensor equipment to detect obstacles. MOVA adds direct touch capability to robot vacuum cleaners with its newly developed sensing architecture.

This system, called TactiPercept™, combines visual recognition with 128 integrated pressure sensors, a flexible buffer system, and instantaneous pressure feedback. When the robot vacuum cleaner comes into contact with walls, furniture legs, and other surfaces, it reads this data and instantly updates its cleaning plan and route.

The device, which slows down when it gently touches an obstacle, maintains a reliable contact along the wall boundary in edge and corner cleanliness, and can free itself from the irregularities it gets stuck on by analyzing tactile reflections. Thus, instead of just observing and avoiding the environment from a distance, robots can directly experience the environment by touching surfaces.

AquaSonar™ Eliminating the Need for Wireless Buoys

As the working areas of devices expand underwater, communication continuity becomes a critical parameter. Since standard wireless frequencies such as Wi-Fi cannot be transmitted reliably underwater, existing systems often necessitate the use of an independent transmitter buoy on the water surface.

MOVA’s AquaSonar™ Underwater Communication System, however, is based on an ultrasonic communication architecture. Since the system’s transmitter unit is directly integrated into the body of the charging station, the need for an additional signal buoy on the water surface is eliminated. This allows the device to maintain uninterrupted communication while working deep underground; Users can also directly access the robot and monitor its status without experiencing additional hardware complications.

UltraTrim™ 3.0 Solution to the “Last Centimeter” Problem in Garden Maintenance

While robotic lawn mowers provide high efficiency in large green areas, areas such as fence bases, wall edges, and flowerbed borders often require additional intervention with manual edge trimming tools. For this “last centimeter” problem, one of the biggest drawbacks of making garden maintenance fully autonomous, MOVA has introduced its new generation edge trimming equipment.

The brand, a market leader in the LiDAR-equipped robotic lawn mower segment, showcased the LiDAX Ultra Gen 2 model and its UltraTrim™ 3.0 technology at the fair. The external cutting disc, positioned on the right side of the device, allows it to work with zero centimeter (0 cm) margin on walls and fence lines that the main blades cannot reach. In transitions where the grass and hard surface are flush, the machine moves directly along the boundary line, completing the edge in a single cut and eliminating the possibility of leaving an uncut strip.

AstraX Goes Beyond Lawn Mowing with its Multifunctional Robotic Arm

EMphasizing that robots interacting with the physical world should go beyond pre-coded, single-type missions, MOVA announced the AstraX model equipped with a robotic arm. Marking a new era in garden maintenance, the device can autonomously perform various physical tasks in addition to lawn mowing thanks to its interchangeable attachments.

Equipped with an AI-powered optical system, when AstraX detects a foreign object that is hindering its progress on the route, it uses its robotic arm to move the obstacle to the side and continues the cleaning process without interruption. The model can pick low-lying fruits from tree branches with its two-finger gripping attachment, while its irrigation module allows it to water predetermined areas according to a schedule.

Knot 80 Robotic Hand Mechanism Modeling the Human Hand

Another advanced engineering project that stood out at the fair from MOVA was the Knot 80 robotic hand system. Unlike standard mechanical grippers that only perform coarse gripping movements, the Knot 80 focuses on the anatomical flexibility of the human hand. This architecture, which has 11 degrees of freedom and 15 points of articulation, is powered by 3D Structured Light Vision, Dual-Direction Rotation, and an Intelligent Robotic Arm Control System.

By interacting with objects of different geometries, materials, and angles, the Knot 80 analyzes the object’s position and placement in the environment to determine the most grip form itself. The system dynamically adjusts the gripping pressure between 25 and 50 Newtons depending on the object’s structure. Correcting its movements within milliseconds with a continuous optical feedback loop, the robotic hand exhibits flexible, stable, and precise gripping performance instead of memorized command sets.

The company plans to expand this hand-like capability, developed with the Knot 80, to a wider range of products in the future. The goal is to enable robots to undertake many different physical tasks with high agility in the future, from household cleaning to storage, from moving to organizing items.
