…environments are often devoid of GPS, which can make it impossible for robots that rely on this technology to position themselves in order to navigate. Instead, ultrasonic and localization technologies are emerging for navigation to pin-point damage mechanisms, as well as provide reproducible data. These deliverables can help predict the future safety of the sites being inspected. Challenges inside GPS-denied…

…including lidar, millimeter-wave radar, camera, GPS/inertial measurement units, computing platform, gateway, T-Box, and IVI-Box. The company said these components have passed strict engineering, development, and production certifications, as well as electrical, mechanical, environmental, and electromagnetic tests, so they should be reliable throughout a heavy-duty truck's lifecycle of 1.5 million km (932,000 mi.). Inceptio Technology raised $120 million in November 2020.…
