Time Magazine has just released its annual “Best Inventions” list for 2022, based on nominations from Time’s editors and correspondents around the world. The prestigious publication has compiled a list of the world’s best inventions for over twenty years and this year, according to Time, the focus was particularly on growing industries such as electric vehicles, green energy, and the metaverse. Each nominee was then evaluated on a number of key factors, including originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact.
The list which celebrates innovations that are making the world better, smarter and a bit more fun contains a total of 200 groundbreaking inventions along with 50 inventions which received special mention. The Husqvarna Automower 415X was one of the 50 selected for a special mention with Time Magazine saying: “The Husqvarna Automower 415X can mow lawns up to 16 000 square feet to specified lengths, and can even tackle slopes and narrow passages. The robot has GPS-assisted navigation that is controlled via an app and can be voice-activated and even predicts the weather conditions to pick the perfect mowing time.”
“We are absolutely thrilled and very proud as a company to have received recognition for our Automower 415X,” says Pieter Smuts, MD of Husqvarna South Africa. “This is an incredible achievement and testimony to the innovation of the Husqvarna team and our constant quest to not only develop premium products that are ground-breaking but ones that also focus on the highest quality and safety.
