Portsmouth, VA: Lawn Mowing Robots for Golf Course Fairways and Rough, Freeing Crews for Greens
On a Portsmouth golf course, lawn mowing robots cut the fairways and rough on a set route, so those passes get done without a person on a mower seat. The times are agreed with the superintendent, and early mornings or the hours after the last group are the usual slots, so the cut stays clear of play. The result is fairways and rough that look the same from week to week, because the route and the cutting height do not drift with whoever happened to be driving that day.
What the crew gets back is time on the work golfers actually notice. Greens, tees and bunkers need hands on them while the course is quiet, and a crew that is not tied up on long fairway passes can give those areas proper attention. Trim work and edging also take people who know the course well, and a mower that runs on its own leaves those people free to do it. Your best operators can stay on the jobs that need judgment instead of spending their day in the seat.

Course names come from OpenStreetMap contributors and are listed for local reference only. A course appearing here does not mean it works with Service Robot Co. or uses a robot mower.
Portsmouth's climate sets the mowing calendar. Warm-season turf such as bermudagrass tends to grow fast from late spring into early fall, so fairway and rough passes come most often through the summer. Summer afternoons often bring thunderstorms, and the robot can stay docked and run later without anyone standing out in the lightning. Busy weekends and member events can be kept clear on the schedule, with the mower held back until the course is ready.
The same robotic mower fits the other big grass around Portsmouth, including city parks, school and college campuses, corporate grounds and sports fields. Ball fields and practice fields are mowed on lines that repeat, which suits a mapped route as well as a fairway does. For a park or campus, the schedule can be set around classes, events and weekend use, much as a course schedules around play.
Who does what in Portsmouth
What the robot mows and what your crew does
Fairways and rough
It follows a mapped route, mows holes that are clear of play, and returns to its charger when it is done. No one rides it.
Greens, tees, bunkers and trim
These stay with your crew. The hours they spent mowing fairways go to this work instead.
Parks, campuses and sports fields
The same kind of mower suits large open turf around Portsmouth: city parks, school and college grounds, corporate campuses, and athletic fields.

- 4We quote the lease
You lease the mower through financing. The payment comes in a quote after the assessment.
