Science - Environment & Ecology / Grass
English term or phrase: Antinapping
Source text is "Enable Antinapping"
The context is, they are small mobile robots used for, among other things, spraying paint on asphalt.

When asked to clarify the term, the client responded with this information:
Antinapping is a tool to counteract the nap of grass.
The nap of grass is the same concept as the nap of fur, i.e. the direction of the straws of grass.
E.g. A modern car has Antispin, which counteracts the spin of the wheels.

I've found very little online -- granddictionnaire suggests "grain" (related to leather industry) and IATE suggests "poil" -- neither seems appropriate for grass and I wouldn't be sure about adding "anti" either...

Looking for help from my trusted colleagues, merci!

Explanation:
J'ai trouvé ces trois expressions pour le gazon synthétique. Elles me paraissent toutes synonymes. Je pense qu'il faut activer ce mode pour que le robot puisse faire son travail de peinture à contresens du brin, sans interférence. Sans doute que c'est important quand les lignes de peinture doivent être bien nettes et que le gazon oppose une grande résistance suivant l'orientation du brin.
