Dev Update: Preview NavAbility Mapper, a 3D Construction site example
We’re making good progress on NavAbility Mapper and have some results to share from a Construction site application example.

September Update: Announcing NavAbility Mapper and New Features
The International Conference on Robotics and Automation resulted in a new product and three new NavAbility features that we’re excited to discuss.

Announcing the NavAbility tutorials
We’re excited to announce the NavAbility tutorials, which demonstrate how real-world robot navigation challenges (like false loop-closures and distributing computations) are addressed using the NavAbility platform.

Meaning of the NavAbility Logo
We at NavAbility firmly believe that the future of AI and robotics will depend on a combination of People and Knowledge.

ICRA Update: One Week to Go, Preparing Tutorials and SDKs
We’re just about ready and looking forward to our workshop on May 27th at ICRA the premier robotics conference, IEEE’s International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) in Philadelphia! We encourage anyone who is interested in building robotic systems to come meet or visit us in Philadelphia during the ICRA week.

Visit us at the NASA LSIC 2022 Spring Meeting!
NavAbility is presenting at the NASA Lunar Surface Innovation Consortium at the Applied Physics Lab at John Hopkins this week and will be engaged with breakout sessions. Come visit us at the event!
We’re updating the NavAbility Cloud!
In preparation for our tutorials at ICRA2022 NavAbility is excited to announce the deployment of our first official production environment of NavAbility Cloud. Our mission is to enable more vibrant robotics automation and this is an important step in empowering our community with a reliable, stable, and secure NavAbility Cloud. The deployment will begin at 8:00pm PST on April 14, 2022.
First 10 steps of the Robotics Journey – a roadmap
What to expect when you’re expecting a robot?… Buy robot, build solution, take over pizza industry, right?
Robotics is an emerging, constantly changing field, and it’s a journey with unique challenges. In this blog post we want to provide our take on the steps in the journey and how you set yourself up for success.
New YouTube video: Easily using camera data for navigation and localization
You have a camera on your robot… but now what?
We’re starting the discussion on how to convert camera data into information that can be used for navigation and localization
NavAbility SDKs Released!
At NavAbility we’re trying to make navigation a widespread, accessible technology to everyone from enterprise commercial companies through to high-school hobbyists. With this in mind we’re excited to announce the our Python, Julia, and Javascript SDKs!
New YouTube video: Factor graphs and their importance in robotics
We promised to have a conversation on all things robotics, and a great place to start that conversation is on factor graphs. This is the topic of your second video on the NavAbility YouTube channel.
Start small, dream big! How does NavAbility empower teams to deliver?
At NavAbility, we believe that robotics and autonomy are hard problems. This is because they’re emerging and changing continuously. Robotics and autonomy require a journey. In this article we discuss our vision and mission: producing a platform that enables your robotics journey with simple, fast, and scalable solutions.
Application Example: Marine Vehicle Mapping Systems for Collision Avoidance and Planning
Automated marine vehicles are an ideal example of real-world complexity in a dynamic environment. At NavAbility we’re using marine robotics to demonstrate how any robot can extract map information from multiple sensors, identify and track dynamic objects like ships, and use prior information to navigate effectively in a dynamic environment.
