Polymath works on most large off-highway vehicles that operate in a contained environment. Some examples are tractors, dump trucks, combines, yard trucks, or bulldozers.
‍
If the vehicle meets the following conditions, you’re probably OK:
‍
- Vehicle is intended for industrial use
- Operates in a controlled environment (no public roads)
- Sudden stops are OK
- Ackermann or differential steering

If you’re unsure whether Polymath will work with your vehicle, don’t hesitate to contact us.

Polymath requires networking, compute, locomotion and drive-by-wire on the physical vehicle.
‍
Essentially, if you have sensors installed and can control the vehicle with a joystick, the vehicle is ready for Polymath.

Probably yes.

While we don’t have an exhaustive list of compatibility, Polymath is compatible with most sensors. If the sensor has a LINUX driver, we can work with it.

‍Contact us if you're unsure about a specific sensor.

You can.

But it will take a long time, and divert your resources from things that make your robot actually valuable to customers.

You can also set up your own data center. Why would you?

Polymath lets you to build an autonomous vehicle without touching ROS. If you’re building custom behaviors, you can do so in ROS containers that will work with Polymath.

All the better! We can use simulation during the build process to assess (and optimize) your sensor selections and placement.

Yes! Polymath autonomy can take commands from existing software via API. Check out the documentation here.
