Neural Nav - Vision based outdoor Navigation and Mission Planning system for orchards

NeuralNav

NeuralNav stack empowers OEMs in agriculture with advanced perception, navigation, mission planning and real time monitoring capabilities. These feature are explained below

Perception

Ability of autonomous agricultural vehicles to interpret and understand their surroundings through sensor streams. NeuralNav relies on various sensors like cameras, lidars, IMUs and GNSS RTK to obtain robust understanding of surrounding and position of the vehicle in it.

Human-Aware Navigation (HAN)

Neural nav enables agricultural vehicles to execute a given mission with precision safely by being aware of humans in the vicinity. NeuralNav relies on fusion GNSS RTK and cameras to precisely know the vehicle pose, even in areas where pure GNSS is not that reliable. It uses fusion of cameras and Lidar (optional) to ensure safety.

Mission planning

With Neural Nav you can define the mission the vehicle should execute in order to complete a specific task within an agricultural field. NeuralNav provides a comprehensive but easy to use UI using which detailed mission planning can be performed. Once mission planning is completed, the same mission can be executed over and over again.

Real time monitoring

Ability to monitor and abort ongoing missions in real time. NeuralNav provides a simple UI with a real time camera and other sensor streams, so that the operator can monitor ongoing operation and abort if it is not going as expected.

Data Collection

NeuralNav automatically collects logs and sensor streams during mission execution, which can further be processed to further train specific AI models, make informed farming decisions by building analytics and reporting.
