Karto™ 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.
"I would like to provide the highest possible recommendation for the mapping, localization, path planning and exploration capabilities developed by the SRI team. I have worked with their mapping technologies over the past four years and am happy to say that the technology has truly matured into a product that is ready for prime time use. It can be used to support user-focused end-products including some of the military and DOE customers who need mapping of hazardous environments. I also believe that these capabilities can be used effectively by robotics researchers who wish to bootstrap their robotics development efforts."
