…23.04 of its spatial intelligence software development kit, or SDK, for robotics, consumer electronics, and device manufacturers. The London-based company said it is the first to include its Perceive functionality as standard. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) remains a challenge for product developers, consuming significant time, resources, and hardware, stated Slamcore. The company said its visual inertial SLAM software runs locally in real time on standard hardware and can be tuned for a range of custom sensors and compute, allowing developers to focus on bringing their products to market. The updated SDK also introduces support for the NVIDIA Jetson Orin…
