Segway Navimow H-series (lawn mower robot)

We’re looking into a lawn mower robot, and our gardener recommends the Segway Navimow H500E.

Does anyone have experience with this robot, in combination with OPENHAB? There’s no binding, if I’m not mistaken. But maybe someone did something ingenious? :wink:

Also Home Assistant has no solutions, although there’s talk about an API being available ‘soon’: Segway Navimow - Third party integrations - Home Assistant Community.

Hi Erik,
I have the mower running in the 2nd season, now.
Waiting for an API, I think iwthout something coming from Segway it’s hardly possible to integrate it

Apparently there is something, working with “Google Assistant SDK” (Segway Navimow - #64 by Szumol - Third party integrations - Home Assistant Community), but I don’t know how that protocol (I assume is the right word?) integrates in openHAB.

Do you have any insight? Maybe with the openHAB Google Assistant binding?

Hi Erik,

I’ve developed a small Python tool to control my Navimow i105 via the Google Assistant SDK. It’s inspired by the Google Assistant SDK Home Assistant Integration and supports basic control commands and status updates. Since it provides an MQTT interface, it can be easily integrated with openHAB or any other home automation system that supports MQTT. It runs alongside the openHAB instance and the Mosquitto MQTT broker on my Raspberry Pi. The code can be found here: Google Assistant MQTT Connector. The tool is not perfect, but it works well for me.

I hope this helps!
