The intersecting challenges
for robot manufacturers
Operate in tele-operated and autonomous modes.
Resource Intensive Adjustments
Complex Real-World Dynamics
Nav2 is powerful
Rapid Prototyping | Speeds up readiness to ship prototypes that include perception, localization, and planning.
Efficient Navigation | Excels at guiding robots smoothly from point A to point B.
Intermediate Poses | Enables more complex tasks such as object following and complete coverage navigation.
…but it has limitations
Challenges in Tuning
Nav2 performs well for rough planning at the prototype phase, but requires a lot of work to handle recovery from unexpected corner cases. As your implementation on Nav2 increases in complexity, the number of corner conditions also increases, and reliability and performance suffer.
Botton line: unplanned events, like local collision avoidance, trip up Nav2.
Adapt to Dynamic Environments
Nav2 struggles when dealing with dynamic environments where one should expect the unexpected. Simply put, it is not a high-adaptability solution. For wide applicability and acceptance, robots need to interact with humans in the real world.
This limitation results in unexpected stoppage or collisions. The robot’s throughput drops, providing less output and economic benefits to your customer.
Amp Up your Nav2 Deployment with 3Laws
Copilot stack or human operator
3Laws Copilot is a plug-and-play filter for Nav2-generated commands for collision avoidance.
Simplify your planning algorithm by relaxing or suppressing complex or hard constraints that bottleneck your solver. Let 3Laws Copilot enforce these constraints independently.
3Laws Copilot is computationally light weight because it solves local problems, whereas most planning algorithms work globally. Therefore, it does not sacrifice on mapping resolution or safety margins.
Benefits for Manufacturers:
Faster Time to Market
Enhanced System Performance
Reduced Business Risks
Increased Customer Satisfaction
Benefits for End-Users:
Higher Throughput and Efficiency
Minimized Collision Risks
Maximized Return on Investment
