The platform currently supports Linux and the Robot Operating System (ROS).

The Qualcomm Robotics RB3 Platform is designed to allow for flexible design options for development and commercialization, from development board offerings for prototyping, to off-the-shelf system-on-module solutions for faster commercialization, to the flexibility for chip-on-board designs for cost optimization at scale. “With the Qualcomm Robotics RB3 Platform, we aim to bring our cutting-edge AI, edge compute and connectivity technologies into the hands of many more robotics innovators to help spur the fast development and commercialization of a new generation of useful and intelligent robots in agriculture, consumer, delivery, inspection, service, smart manufacturing/Industry 4.0, warehousing and logistics, and other applications,” he added. “Our technologies are at the heart of a wide array of robotics products available today, from companion robots including Anki Vector, ElliQ, and Sony Aibo, to multimedia robots like Cerevo Tripon and Keecker, to labor-saving machines such as robotic vacuum cleaners from iRobot, Ecovacs, and Panasonic,” said Dev Singh, director of business development and head of autonomous robotics, drones and intelligent machines at Qualcomm Technologies.Įditor’s note: Qualcomm’s Dev Singh and Amazon Web Services’ Roger Barga will be delivering keynotes at the Robotics Summit & Expo in Boston in June. The Qualcomm Robotics RB3 Platform will also introduce 5G connectivity support later this year to further enable low-latency and high-throughput industrial robotics applications. It also includes high-fidelity sensor processing for perception odometry for localization, mapping, and navigation vault-like security and Wi-Fi connectivity. Building on Qualcomm Technologies’ success in robotics and drone products, this purpose-built platform features a highly optimized set of hardware, software and tools designed to help manufacturers and developers create the next generation of advanced consumer, enterprise, and industrial robotics products.īased on the Qualcomm SDA/SDM845 system-on-chip (SoC), the platform integrates key capabilities such as high-performance heterogeneous computing, 4G/LTE connectivity including CBRS support for private LTE networks, and a Qualcomm AI Engine for on-device machine learning and computer vision.
