SLAM product: a Web-based mapping system based on SRI International's SLAM technology

A message from SRI. -Bob

Hi.

We are pleased to announce the availability of a Web-based mapping system based on SRI International's SLAM technology called Karto™.

As part of the first step toward providing a complete suite of robotic navigation and exploration algorithms, we are making the Karto Logger Plug-In available as a free download at www.kartorobotics.com. The Karto Logger Plug-In allows robot developers to collect and log odometry and range data in a form that our mapping software can interpret to create maps of indoor environments. This can be done either in simulation or a on a real-world robotic platform. We currently support both the Player and Microsoft Robotic Studio platforms.

We welcome any and all feedback on our algorithms. Please feel free to contact us at kt-info@kartorobotics.com to tell us about your experiences with our mapping algorithm.

Sincerely,

The Karto™ Team
