What we built
Built in our Motera lab, validated on a replica rig, then commissioned on site in days using ArduPilot Rover and ROS 2.
Delivery timeline
Phase 1
Discovery sprint and site survey
Phase 2
Prototype built and tested in the Motera lab
Phase 3
Pilot on site with before/after measurement
Phase 4
Scale-out, training and handover
Highlights
- Documentation, drawings and source handed over at close
