RoadNarrows specializes in intelligent robotics, professional sensors, and integrated autonomous systems for the research, academic, and industrial markets.
Our R&D team develops professional open-interface hardware and software solutions for a wide variety of robotics, offering physical accessories and software which expand the capabilities of ODM solutions.
The company has developed a low-cost intelligent desk-top robotic manipulator for agile manufacturing named "Hekateros". The price point is under $5000 to meet the needs of emerging small industrial robotic arm applications. It is also tailored to be mounted on a mobile robotic platform, and its open-interface utilizing WillowGarage's ROS (Robot Operating System) allows OEMs and researchers to design custom sensors or applications to the platform.
Hekateros is an evolution of the SkewlZone(TM) project to develop an open legged robot brain and sensor hardware and software platform partially funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under a Phase II SBIR / STTR grant.
RoadNarrows is also known for their intelligent camera RoboSight(TM) which uses a unique chip called the CogniMem for real-time pattern recognition.
RoadNarrows has recently acquired a Dimension Elite 3D Printer for Digital Manufacturing and quick custom, low-cost development of their robotic components and parts.
RoadNarrows is available for custom contracts which involve design, mechanical, electrical, and software development.
