Wickboldt LLC R&D
Onboard autonomy for a Unitree Go2-W quadruped. With no prior map, the robot explores on its own, choosing each next goal to reveal the most new ground, builds a LiDAR map as it goes, and returns to where it started. Saved maps let it relocalize and run inspection missions later.
- Frontier exploration that picks the most informative next goal
- Real-time LiDAR mapping, with maps saved for reuse
- Relocalization on saved maps and inspection missions
- Operator dashboard and a dedicated safety-braking node
