Localization and Navigation

Our #1 software that enables robots to localize and navigate autonomously can be easily integrated in any mobile robot.
  • Easy Integration

    • Easy Integration

    A standardized UDP based interface enables fast integration into new or existing robot plattforms

    • One simple interface between software and robot hardware
    • Proven: multiple vendors already use the protocol to enable their mobile robots doing localization and navigation

  • Localization

    • Battle tested localization technology

    Simultaneous localization and mapping using laser scan data

    • Localization is based on reliable laser scan data
    • No additional sensors are needed. A common safety laser that is on board anyway does the job.
    • Laser scanner based localization enables the robot to calculate its position without the need of any additional helper technologies.

  • Navigation

    • Autonomous Navigation

    No need to specify transport paths up front. Our navigation solution always finds the right way, just tell it where to go next.

    • No predefined paths
    • Instant re-routing
    • Obstacles are avoided on the way
    • Safe to operate in areas with other vehicles and humans
    • Interaction with other vendors via the VDA/VDMA 5050 Interface

  • Traffic Management

    • Traffic Management

    Smart solutions to avoid delays and increase throughput, even with a high number of shuttles

    • Realtime inter-shuttle communication
    • Traffic jam detection
    • Coordination with Fleet Management

  • VDA/VDMA5050

    • VDA / VDMA 5050

    The standard interface for autonomous mobile robots and fleet management systems.

    • incubed IT is part of the standardization group
    • A full implementation of the VDA/VDMA 5050 interface is part of the software stack.
