In a season where rising temperatures and tighter water restrictions are top of mind, Aiper, a company best known for its cordless robotic pool cleaners, is turning its focus to the lawn. The Atlanta-based smart yard brand recently launched its latest product, the IrriSense Smart Irrigation System (Priced at $699.99). The connected, app-driven sprinkler promises healthier grass with less water and hassle. IrriSense takes the guesswork out of lawn care with automated scheduling, responsive watering features and app-based controls, helping homeowners care for their lawns with less effort.
The product has earned recognition as a 2025 CES Innovation Award and iF Design Award honoree. Aiper's product lineup has received industry praise, including the Red Dot Design Award. The company has also been recognized as a CES Innovation Awards honoree in 2023, 2024 and 2025, which reflects its ongoing work in connected outdoor solutions.
'At Aiper, we're driven by one simple goal: to use technology to make outdoor living easier and more enjoyable for homeowners,' Aiper CEO Richard Wang said. 'With IrriSense, we're tackling one of the most frustrating parts of lawn care — knowing when, where and how much to water the grass. Just like we reimagined pool cleaning, we've reimagined irrigation to take the guesswork and grunt work out of maintaining a lush, healthy lawn. It's smarter, simpler and built for real life.'
Precision watering with minimal setup
Designed to eliminate the need for underground piping or complicated installations, IrriSense can be set up in about 15 minutes and controlled entirely through the Aiper app. With sufficient water pressure, the system can reach up to a 39-foot spray radius and cover up to 4,800 square feet — nearly the size of two standard tennis courts — using a single sprinkler.
With Aiper's exclusive EvenRain™ technology, simulating natural rainfall for even coverage while preventing overwatering. Gentle water streams protect soil and newly planted seeds. Adaptive Re-Spray technology ensures no blind spots by automatically shortening spray distances after completing the outermost zone.
A built-in filter helps keep the system free of clogs, while a backflow valve adds a layer of protection for the home's water supply. These are small but essential features that help ensure long-term reliability.
A smarter way to stay connected
According to the EPA, inefficient watering methods like evaporation, wind or overwatering waste up to 50% of outdoor water use. By automating timing and targeting, smart irrigation systems like IrriSense help reduce wasted water by delivering it only when it is needed.
With the Aiper app, users can manage their watering routines from anywhere. The app lets homeowners map out irrigation zones, adjust schedules on the fly and view live updates — including water usage and timing. It also pulls local weather data to cancel watering on rainy days to combat overwatering.
Features like one-touch activation, performance history and irrigation zone mapping give homeowners more control without adding complexity.
