RGo Robotics Perception Engine Helps AMRs Perceive the World

Analysis:
RGo Robotics’ Perception Engine enables mobile robots to detect obstacles, recognize people and other machines in complex environments. The solution uses vision-based perception, but combines the visual information with other sensor data to build a robust understanding of the world around it.

The solution can run on low-power, ultra-low cost compute infrastructure, enabling the deployment for low-cost, consumer grade mobile products. The company built a reference hardware design and offers the hardware for evaluation and low-volume production.

For higher-volume applications, manufacturers can license the reference design and source the boards or components from their preferred vendors. The reference design supports multiple communication protocols, including CAN bus, Ethernet, EtherCAT, UART, and SPI. The API can be accessed via a C++ or ROS wrapper. – Mike Oitzman
