Sevensense Robotics has introduced the Alphasense Autonomy Evaluation Kit to help accelerate the development and deployment of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).
Alphasense Autonomy leverages the 360-degrees view of the vehicle’s surroundings and Visual SLAM technology to offer <0.3 inches (<4 mm) precise and reliable positioning capabilities in all indoor and outdoor environments, even over uneven floors and ramps. The evaluation kit is a plug-and-play software and hardware bundle that combines the Alphasense multi-camera sensor with Alphasense Autonomy and Sevensense’s proprietary software stack and configuration tools to reduce the time required to integrate a fully functioning Visual SLAM navigation system on a vehicle.
The hardware consists of a compact device including five factory-calibrated cameras and a computer unit with pre-installed software. The system can be mounted on top of any vehicle and requires a minimal amount of connections such as power and ethernet. Optionally, additional 3rd party sensors can also be connected.
Thanks to a web-based interface, the user is guided through a simple step-by-step installation wizard to calibrate, set up the interfaces, and configure and deploy the target AMR.
