Special Guest Presenter
Regis Vincent
Senior Research Scientist, SRI International
Moderator
Dan Kara
President, RoboticsTrends
In this webinar, Regis Vincent, Senior Research Scientist at SRI International provdes attendees with a review of Karto, an SDK for robotic navigation, mapping and exploration, which enables developers of mobile robot solutions to integrate navigation and mapping intelligence into their designs. The Karto 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. As a software-only solution, the Karto SDK gives developers the flexibility to work with the widest range of mobile robot platforms, simulation environments, operating systems and robotics middleware. In this webinar, you will learn how Karto can help your robot be smarter.

Accelerating Robotics Development With NI LabVIEW
Robots and robotic technology are composed of several other systems - communications, dynamic control, intelligence, navigation, safety, data logging, sensors, mechanicals, mobility and more. To speed robotics development, ensure quality and lower costs, therefore, roboticists require tools and techniques that reduce the complexity of building robots and robotic technology. Roboticists must able to function as domain experts and focus on robotics system design, rather than getting bogged down by minutiae such as programming embedded controllers, acquiring sensor data, and creating communication data packets.
Speed Robotics Development
The Accelerating Robotics Development with NI LabVIEW webinar demonstrates how commercial-off-the-shelf technologies such as National Instruments LabVIEW graphical system design software and embedded, reconfigurable hardware can accelerate design and development of complex robotics systems.
