When Vincenc Šopík and his classmates started building solar power plants, they certainly did not plan to build Christabel, a company worth 400 million. Thanks to this, they came up with another business idea that streamlines the maintenance of solar power plants.

Smaut mows grass using autonomous mowers in a number of European solar parks. It provides mowing services for Austrian railways and Spanish energy companies. At the same time, technicians from the company founded by Vincenc Šopík are already testing operations on plantations in South America.

SMAUT, a Czech manufacturer of specialized robots for solar power plant management and work in demanding conditions, is introducing a new generation of machines. Thanks to autonomous control connected to radars and electric drive, their ability to work independently is significantly increased.

Machines equipped with technology developed by Czech engineers are already mowing grass on an area exceeding 4,000 hectares. The use of autonomous control eliminates a large part of the demanding and dangerous human labor and saves 30% in costs.

In today’s world, efficiency is more than just cost-cutting—it's a key strategic advantage. A shortage of skilled labor, rising operational costs, and pressure to maximize equipment utilization are forcing companies to find new solutions. Our autonomous platform is not just an answer to these challenges. It is a tool that transforms operational headaches into measurable profit and a competitive edge.

There are places where people should never go unless absolutely necessary. Electrical substations, active airfields, and other industrial zones present risks that workers should not be needlessly exposed to. Our autonomous technology was not developed to replace people, but to take over work in environments that are too hazardous for them. The result is not only the protection of human health but also an unexpected increase in efficiency and significant cost savings.

The idea of converting a specialized machine into a fully autonomous robot can seem like a complex, costly, and time-consuming project. At SMAUT, however, we have designed the entire process to be as efficient and straightforward as possible for machine manufacturers. Our goal isn’t to replace your proven technology, but to elevate it to the next level by adding a brain that enables it to work independently, more safely, and more effectively.

The concept of an autonomous machine is often simplified to a device blindly following a pre-planned GPS route. But true autonomy, as we develop it at Smaut, is about something more: a machine’s ability to perceive, understand, and intelligently react to complex and ever-changing environments. At the heart of this revolution is our latest-generation control unit—the brain that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible.
