…on the Robot Operating System 〈ROS〉. As a “hybrid” system, LilBuddy is able to travel long distances using natural guidance like an autonomous mobile robot (AMR), the company said. For precision docking, the vehicle relies on QR codes/fiducials or magnetic tape, like an automated guided vehicle (AGV). This dual capability give LilBuddy greater versatility within its working environment, claimed Resgreen…
