07.02.2024
Kudan is pleased to announce that Vecow Co., Ltd. (hereafter “Vecow”), a strategic partner of Kudan and a team of global embedded experts with its headquarter based in Taiwan, has decided to release the product of Vecow’s Turnkey SLAM Kit (hereafter “VTK SLAM Kit”), which embedded Kudan’s artificial perception technology. For the release from Vecow, please refer to here.
Kudan has been actively engaging in joint product development and promotion with Vecow, starting with the establishment of a strategic partnership in 2020 and the launch of a development kit for digital twins integrating both companies’ core technologies in 2023.
This time, in addition to providing technology for digital twins, Vecow is launching the VTK SLAM Kit, a solution kit for autonomous mobile robots, which is experiencing rapid growth in demand.
The VTK SLAM Kit, optimized for various autonomous vehicles and Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS), is an industrial-grade software-hardware integrated kit. By integrating KudanSLAM’s industry-leading accuracy and stability in positioning and 3D mapping, the VTK SLAM Kit enables the implementation of diverse robotic solutions that were previously challenging to implement with conventional spatial perception technologies, thereby accelerating the societal implementation of robotics.
Solution Highlights of VTK SLAM Kit:
- 3D-LiDAR based SLAM or Visual/camera based SLAM software is pre-installed for mapping and positioning functionalities.
- Capable for multi-sensor fusion, including IMU, GNSS, Wheel Odometry, 2D-LiDAR, multiple cameras or multiple 3D-LiDARs
- Quickly access to best-in-class localization and mapping technology, and help accelerate the development of products and solutions that need accurate and reliable position tracking in both indoor and outdoor environments.
- Perpetual software license is granted. Users can use the solution kit without time limitations.
Comment from both companies:
Partnering with Vecow on the VTK SLAM Kit leverages our advanced SLAM technology to offer quick access to best-in-class mapping and localization solution for navigation in complex environments. This collaboration underscores our commitment to delivering cutting-edge SLAM software that meets the evolving needs of industries such as robotics and autonomous systems. By integrating our technology with Vecow’s sophisticated hardware, we are paving the way for enhanced innovation and efficiency in automation applications.
