TEAM
The Logistics Robotics is responsible for developing navigation capabilities such as localization, mapping, planning, control and tele-op, and integrating them into our delivery robot system which will be deployed in the Toyota Woven City in 2025 and more. Our approach is a mixture of data driven and analytical methods, in other words, ML and classical approach which can solve real problems in the city. Also, we heavily leverage digital twin tools to accelerate our software development, prototyping hardware design and quality assurance, then iterate PoC as quickly as possible by working closely with Hardware, Cloud, Biz and UX team as one team.
