NVIDIA Isaac AMR
The NVIDIA Isaac™ autonomous mobile robot (AMR) platform is an end-to-end, modular autonomy stack that lets a fleet of coordinated robots function robustly and safely among humans in large, highly dynamic, unstructured environments. It gives you a powerful, proven solution for developing state-of-the-art autonomy to use with mobile robots, automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and forklifts.
Apply For Early Access
End-to-End Performance
Isaac AMR delivers robust operation of fully autonomous and collaborative robots.

Rich 3D Maps With Semantics
Create 2D and 3D occupancy maps of large spaces and add semantic labels with the integrated NVIDIA Isaac navigation stack.
Lidar Navigation Stack
Use the lidar navigation stack to reconfigure the app (low code/no code) for use in simulation or the robot. You can also use cloud/edge server-based Mission Control to optimize route plans with NVIDIA® cuOpt™.
Robot Deployment and Management at Scale
Use Mission Control to send missions to a robot fleet, use the navigation stack integrated with Isaac Sim for Software-in-Loop testing, and build with secure software updates from NGC (NVIDIA GPU Cloud).
Isaac AMR Software
Isaac AMR 2.0 features an autonomous navigation stack that includes lidar-based grid mapping, global and continuous localization, a global route planner, a mission client, a behavior planner, and wheel-IMU odometry, as well as a new path and trajectory planner and controller.
This release also includes tools for data collection and a cloud-based map creation service. You can use the on-premises data center-based mission control for optimizing route planning with the NVIDIA cuOpt engine and delivering up-to-date maps to the robots.

NVIDIA Nova Carter
Isaac AMR Reference Robot
The NVIDIA Nova Carter robot, powered by Nova Orin, is a reference robot required to experience the Isaac AMR end-to-end stack. The robot comes fully assembled and ready to use.
It includes an NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin system-on-module with up to 275 TOPS of compute and uses lidar and a set of stereo cameras for surround perception, mapping, and navigation. The robot is calibrated and tested to work out of the box, giving developers valuable time to innovate on new features and capabilities.
Among possible use cases, Nova Carter can collect data for mapping test areas like a warehouse or a factory. The processed data can then be deployed into Carter to achieve full autonomy for a specific use case.

Nova Sensors for Full Autonomy
The NVIDIA Nova Carter robot comes with sensors to boost 3D perception, which helps it operate in very large dynamic environments. 3D understanding also ensures higher uptime and availability.

Vision
A mix of wide-angle and fisheye cameras for depth, spatial perception, visual localization, grid mapping and teleoperation
Lidar
A combination of 3D lidar and 2D lidar for mapping, localization, and navigation to fit with a wide range of autonomous machines (low profile robots or forklifts)

Other Sensors
IMU and Wheel Encoder for fusion with other sensor modalities for precise odometry and localization
