How does it handle obstacle avoidance?

Today I have the Yuka 1000 robot lawn mower, which has a front-facing 3D obstacle avoidance system that can even detect small animals like the turtles in my garden (they’re over 35 years old).
However, when the robot turns left or right, it can’t see what’s next to it and might hit them, as shown in the photo.
Does the Dreame A2, with its LiDAR system, also detect obstacles on the sides?
Thanks

Pobre tortuga😅 yo tambien tengo tortugas pero encerradas sino se escapan! , el dreame deteca delante los ladoa creo que no lo puede ver.

Now, for safety, I also keep the turtle in an enclosure while the robot is running, but I was hoping to find a way for animals and technology to coexist

Hello! Our equipment mainly relies on LiDAR sensors to identify obstacles to achieve obstacle avoidance.
However, the minimum height of the obstacle must be higher than 5 cm, otherwise it cannot be identified. In addition, a collision avoidance plate is installed to avoid low objects.

There is also a "night low-speed safety mode" to reduce interference with animals at night. You can also set the "animal activity" area through the APP. After setting, the robot will actively avoid these areas to further reduce interference with animals and provide them with more freedom and safety.

Hope it helps
Best regards
