Are Single-Sensor Robots Obsolete?
We think so, and we’re here to show you why.
Au-Zone is proud to be featured in NXP Semiconductors’ Conversations at the Edge video series, a multi-part collaboration exploring innovation at the intersection of Edge AI and real-world robotics.
In this episode, we showcase Raivin, our robust, low-power platform powered by NXP’s i.MX 8 Plus. Raivin combines vision, radar, and lidar to deliver reliable multimodal perception, ideal for autonomous machines operating in the harshest environments.
With seamless integration of ROS and Zephyr RTOS, Raivin offers developers streamlined access to sensor data, bounding boxes, and occupancy grids—configurable via API or intuitive web UI. It’s fully waterproof, field-deployable, and built to support safety-critical applications.
Key Highlights:
- Radar-Vision Sensor Fusion for Human Detection→ Greater accuracy and redundancy through sensor fusion
- Edge AI on NXP i.MX 8 for Real-Time Safety→ Sub-8W performance for demanding, safety-focused use cases
- Developer-Ready Platform for Model Training→ Full support for custom models, data capture, and retraining
🎥 Watch the episode to see how Raivin is shaping the future of autonomous robotics:
