AutonomouStuff and Harbrick debut PolySyncâ„¢, the Autonomy Operating System, at AVS
AutonomouStuff provides demonstration at Automated Vehicles Symposium
San Francisco - AutonomouStuff and Harbrick debut PolySyncâ„¢ with an on-road demonstration at the Automated Vehicles Symposium, July 15-17 in San Francisco. PolySync is the worlds first operating system for building autonomous vehicles. Similar to mobile platforms, it turns robot development into app development.
The transportation industry is undergoing a convergence of many technologies, enabling the development of autonomous vehicles. Vehicle OEMs are in a race to understand and commercialize these technologies before their competitors, while maintaining the safety and quality of their products. PolySync helps companies prototype, test and ship safe and reliable autonomous vehicles in a fraction of the time.
PolySync"The car is the original mobile device," said Harbrick founder Josh Hartung. "PolySync is the operating system that will take automated driving from science project to mass deployment."
When a company wants to build an autonomous vehicle, they have a variety of amazing, modular hardware components to choose from (LiDAR, radar, cameras, GPS, etc.), but they must build the software from the ground-up. Consequently, the bulk of development time is spent building, testing, and debugging software. For safety-critical systems such as automated emergency braking or lane keeping assist, every line of code must be tested and verified before it can be deployed.
Instead of building the system from the ground-up, PolySync lets developers build specialized apps that can be deployed on any PolySync-enabled vehicle, significantly reducing the codebase. PolySync takes care of complicated but critical tasks such as data management and time synchronization, letting developers focus on algorithms instead of infrastructure. The result is safer, more reliable systems and dramatically reduced time to market.
"Were so excited to be working with our partners to bring PolySync to the automated driving industry," said AutonomouStuff CEO Bobby Hambrick. "PolySync can help our customers build better systems and bring them to market faster."
