Nova Carter AMR, a complete robotics development platform has been officially launched on the Segway-Ninebot website. Segway-Ninebot and NVIDIA co-developed the Nova Carter AMR. Specifically, it aims to accelerate the development and deployment of next-generation autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).
Mainly, the chassis that provides mobility for Nova Carter AMR comes from the flagship product RMP Lite 220 of Segway Robotics. Meanwhile, its software system, including chips, algorithms, and sensors comes from NVIDIA. Segway Robotics is also responsible for the integration of the whole product.
Nova Carter AMR utilizes the NVIDIA AGX Orin for accelerated computing under Robot Operating System (ROS) 2, offering a complete 360° perception from cameras and light detection and ranging (LiDAR). Also, it features high-performance computing modules, multiple sensors, powerful autonomous driving development software and tools. Additionally, it highlights a highly secure and reliable design, providing strong support for the development and implementation of autonomous driving technology.
In practical cases, the Nova Carter AMR can collect data for mapping test areas such as warehouses or factories. The processed data can then be deployed to Carter for fully autonomous operations for specific use.
Segway Robotics is a robot brand under Segway-Ninebot, with commercial delivery robots and robot mobile platforms. In particular, RMP Lite 220 is one of the robot mobile platforms of Segway Robotics, targeting enterprises and third-party developers. It provides an integrated robot chassis solution for secondary development or customized services. To date, Segway Robotics has independently developed multiple forms of RMP products. Among them include, Lite 220, Pro 401, Plus 401, Smart 260, etc., which can meet the diverse needs in different scenarios such as indoor and outdoor delivery, warehousing and logistics AGV, inspection, and cleaning.
At present, customers can purchase the Nova Carter robots from Segway Robotics. Customized services for industry developers and insiders will also be available.
