How does the autonomous robotic lawn mower work?
4G data traffic is used to ensure a constant and robust communication between the robot mower, the STIGA Cloud and the reference station. This means that obstacles in the garden such as walls, trees, bushes, etc. are not a barrier to the robot mower's communication with the rest of the system. As a result, your robot can take full advantage of its autonomy and care for your lawn with extreme accuracy.
The connection between your robotic lawn mower and the STIGA.GO app on your phone works through the phone's data itself and does not use any of the data needed for the robot to work.
All STIGA autonomous robot mowers are delivered with free connectivity for the lifetime of your robot. No extra costs needed.
The data traffic is being used by the system from the moment the robot mower leaves the docking station and starts the mowing session. Depending on how big the garden is and how many cutting sessions have been scheduled, the system will use more or less data from the given amount. The data traffic stops when the robotic lawn mower goes back to the docking station, at the end of the mowing session.
For our autonomous robotic lawn mowers and their 4G connection, we chose to partner with Vodafone, and here are some reasons why:
1) Vodafone is the largest network in Europe, this ensures global and secure coverage.
2) STIGA cares about the security and privacy of users. This is why we protect the communication between our autonomous robot mowers and Vodafone SIMs, in order to be ableconnect to the necessary services. This is also the reason why it's not possible to install SIM cards from other providers on our autonomous robot mower.
Is STIGA Cloud safe?
You don't need to worry about your data safety. The servers where our Cloud runs are located in Europe and this means they respect a very restrictive data protection legislation. Choose STIGA, discover quality and enjoy safety.
