Idea

Self-driving 2020 – industrial autonomy powered by visual perception

When it comes to autonomous indoor industrial transport systems, such as pallet-carriers and other vehicles used in dynamic warehouse and manufacturing facilities, existing commercial solutions have not proven adequate – the majority of products on the market are not flexible, capable or cost-effective enough for this low-margin sector. There is a clear business need for much cheaper and more flexible systems that provide greater scalability and adaptability while being easier to integrate.

Gideon Brothers addresses this need by offering a plug-and-play, self-driving solution, which does not rely on LiDAR or external guidance systems for navigation, but instead, a new vision-based technology that navigates more effectively.

Gideon Brothers’ technology relies on visual (stereo camera-based) perception paired with AI to navigate, rather than LiDAR. While visual perception is an innovation in itself (there are just two other suppliers in the world working on it), Gideon’s technology is the only solution that deeply understands its environment, the objects in it and their context. This understanding improves the robustness of localization and navigation and allows higher-level use-cases and value-added functionalities derived from recognizing interpreting, and processing data on objects in the environment.
