Clearpath OutdoorNav software eases mobile robotics development

Analysis:
Robotics product development can often be a difficult experience. Building a robust navigation system is expensive and risky, and it may prevent you from bringing your product to market in a timely fashion. Clearpath Robotics designed OutdoorNav to streamline the development of autonomous robots. You no longer need a full team of robotics navigation experts and months of prototyping to get your autonomous system into the field. OutdoorNav comes with a well-documented API that allows developers to expand the capabilities by integrating custom ROS-based applications and graphical user interfaces or by connecting third-party fleet management tools. Highly configurable and customizable, OutdoorNav could be ideal for prototyping and developing the next generation of smart autonomous industrial machines that aim to increase productivity, improve efficiency and address forecasted labor shortages. - Steve Crowe
