Animated robot lawn mower icon for Home Assistant

Docked it charges with a breathing green light bar; mowing the bar turns blue, the wheels turn and clippings fly out the back; returning the blue bar runs toward the dock while its LED blinks; error blinks the bar red.

4 states: docked, mowing, returning and error. Part of the garden & outdoor icons in the Animara Full Pack.

States of the robot lawn mower icon

The card picks the state from your entity, so the icon always shows what the robot lawn mower is doing.

  • DockedResting state, shown when the device is off or idle.
  • Mowing
  • Returning
  • Error

Which Home Assistant entities fit

  • Any lawn_mower entity gets this icon by default when nothing more specific matches.
  • Picked automatically when the entity or device name contains "mower", "m ä", "ae her", on switch, input_boolean, binary_sensor or sensor entities.
  • Any entity that is simply on or off, such as a switch or input_boolean: on shows mowing, off shows docked. Entity states named like a state below (for example error) are used directly.
  • Works with any entity whose state you map: pick this icon in the card and map your entity's own state words to these states with the card's states: option.

How to use it in Home Assistant

  1. Install the Animara card: one link install, HACS as a custom repository, or copy animara-card.js to /config/www.
  2. Edit your dashboard, choose Add card, then Animara.
  3. Pick your entity. Choose Robot lawn mower in the Icon list if it is not detected automatically.
  4. Paste your Full Pack license key into the License key field once per dashboard.
