   Current Projects

Karto

Karto Development
The KartoTM SDK leverages three decades of leading edge research by SRI International to provide high accuracy navigation, mapping, and exploration functionality across a broad range of mobile robot platforms.
 

LAGR

Learning Applied to Ground Robots
LAGR is a DARPA project to develop autonomous offroad navigation, using techniques based on realtime vision and learning.
 

Leaving Flatland

Leaving Flatland: Fast Autonomous Navigation For UGVs in Challenging Terrain
We envision a new research program on autonomous modeling and navigation, with the goal of enabling small unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) to move alongside their human counterparts through virtually any environment. Such UGVs will operate indoor and outdoor, with no distinction, and at a speed compatible with human motion. This is a joint project with Stanford University and Boston Dynamics.
 
   Past Projects

Centibots

Centibots very large-scale robot teams
This is a joint project with Stanford, University of Washington, and ActiveMedia Robotics, to design, implement and demonstrate a computational framework for the coordination of very large robot teams, consisting of at least 100 small, resource limited robots, on an indoor reconnaissance task.
 
   Software

Karto Robotic SDK
Karto SDK for robot on the move
Small Vision System
The Small Vision System (SVS) is an efficient software implementation of the SRI stereo algorithms, running on standard PC or Unix hardware. These algorithms are 3 to 4 times faster than similar algorithms, and have high-quality filtering to reject false stereo matches.
