New app-powered sprinkler offers easy, water-conscious lawn care
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. Designed with the world in mind Aiper is partnering with - bringing safe water to 4,000 people in need. Their donation supports access to clean water, improving health, education and opportunity for communities in need. From cordless robotic pool cleaners that reduce the need for frequent backwashing and water replacement by keeping pools cleaner for longer, to the new IrriSense smart irrigation system that uses real-time weather monitoring to water lawns only when it's needed – Aiper's innovations are designed to help people use water more sustainably. Visit to learn more about its products or to purchase IrriSense, now available at just $499.99 with a limited time offer.

Walmart (WMT) Saves Halloween From Trump's Scary Tariff Tirade
The kids and the parents of America can relax – President Trump's tariff tirade has failed to put the frighteners on Halloween and chill Christmas. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. According to a new report, U.S. retail giant Walmart (WMT) has ensured that Halloween costumes and décor, holiday decorations, Barbie dolls, air fryers and Mario Kart characters will be in stock for the big days. Front-Loaded Supply Walmart, according to data from Import Genius, has front-loaded its supply chain strategies both before Trump's tariffs were first imposed and then during the window when the levies were paused. 'The front-loading patterns for the companies over the summer of 2024, ahead of the East Coast Longshoremen strike fears; the first few months of 2025, ahead of Liberation Day tariffs; and the unpausing of Chinese shipments in June, which arrived in July; are visible in the charts,' William George, director of research for ImportGenius said, as reported by CNBC. Walmart has faced a tariff whammy with the hikes in imports from countries battered by high tariffs such as China, forcing the value retailer to hike prices. Rising inflation and economic uncertainty have also hit both Walmart and other stocks. Walmart has had to be creative to avoid the worst of the levies given the breadth of its international business. – see above. Tariff Tips This has recently included opening new routes for its suppliers out of Vietnam, which has a lower tariff rate than China. Walmart, alongside other retailers, have also reportedly asked Indian exporters to pause shipments of apparel and textiles until further notice because of sky-high tariffs there. The impact of tariffs will be keenly followed by investors when Walmart issues its Q2 earnings later this week. Although it has failed to hamper the company's share price, which is up over 13% in the year-to-date. Wall Street is expecting WMT to report earnings of $0.72 per share, which would represent year-over-year growth of 7.46%. Revenues for the period are expected to come in at $175.51 billion, up 3.65% from the prior-year quarter. Is WMT a Good Stock to Buy Now? On TipRanks, WMT has a Strong Buy consensus based on 23 Buy ratings. Its highest price target is $130. WMT stock's consensus price target is $114.52, implying a 12.48% upside.
