Every robot needs a localization system: the ability to know its position and orientation in the environment. Robotic developers spend a lot of time iteratively improving and testing their system in different environmental conditions. In this blog post we share how the Artefacts platform can make your robotics development more …
read moreLet's compare the manual testing approach traditionally performed within robotics context with a more modern automated approach enabled by the Artefacts platform.
The usual robotics testing life cycle is:
Many of the pains of traditional robotics testing are the reason we are dedicated to developing the Artefacts platform and providing …
