- Cross-Platform Support — ERSP 3.1 can be used with more platforms than ever before. It can also be ported across different operating systems and hardware.
- Ease of Use — ERSP 3.1 comes with everything you need to develop your robotic product, including tutorials, complete documentation and APIs.
- Cost-Effective — ERSP 3.1 was developed with cost of hardware in mind. Plus, we offer discounts for educational institutions.
ERSP 3.1 empowers developers, product managers, R&D labs and companies interested in creating robotic products the ability to create powerful systems, prototypes, and ultimately successful products.
Robotic Products: Consumer electronic companies and appliance manufacturers use ERSP to develop next generation intelligent products ranging from smart vacuum cleaners to entertainment robots.
Camera Phones: Telecommunication companies and content providers are developing next generation applications for using ViPR technology (included in ERSP) on a camera phone to recognize objects, advertisements and promotions for mobile services that can be accessed on your phone at a snap of a picture.
Automation, Homeland Security and More: Furthermore, ERSP or parts of it are used for developing automated inspection systems in manufacturing, guidance and navigation capabilities of unmanned vehicles and threat detection for Homeland Security.
ERSP's core technologies in vision and navigation empower a new generation of products with an unprecedented level of intelligence and autonomy.
ERSP consists of more than 500,000 lines of code with many modules, tools, and functions. However, the key technologies that can enhance a product's intelligence and level of autonomy above the competition consist of the following:
- ViPR® — the gold standard in Visual Pattern Recognition software, which is deployed in many consumer electronic products, and provides reliable recognition of patterns, parts and markers in realistic environments.
- vSLAM® — the first-of-its-kind visual localization and mapping system that enables a robot to use only one camera combined with optical encoders to estimates its position within an environment with 10cm accuracy.
- ERSA™ — the Evolution Robotics Software Architecture is the Operating System of the robot. It provides all the infrastructure, tools, and facilities for handling and managing all of the robot hardware and software components.
ERSP is organized in clear to understand modules and functions combined with great documentation and tutorials to accelerate the development process without exposing the developer to the complex technologies it incorporates.
Our technical support is provided by the team that developed ERSP and consists of lead developers that know the ins and outs of the system and senior research scientists that invent these technologies. We are confident that our customers are in good hands.
ERSP is available under the following platforms:
- 32-bit Debian 4.0
- 64-bit Debian 4.0
- 32-bit Fedora Core 8
- 64-bit Fedora Core 8
- 32-bit Windows XP
Further, ERSP can be ported to other operating systems and embedded hardware environments, standard or proprietary, under a professional services contract with Evolution Robotics.
For more detail contact oem@evolution.com or 626-229-3199.
The core technologies featured in ERSP are developed with cost of hardware in mind. In particular, our goal has been to provide breakthrough technologies at breakthrough prices so that these technologies can be easily integrated into the bill of materials for consumer products.
Universities, high schools, and other educational institutions receive a 75% discount on the ERSP SDK purchase price.
