Nova Carter

Autonomous Robotics Development Platform

Powered by NVIDIA

Nova Carter, powered by Nova Orin™ reference architecture, is a complete robotics development platform that accelerates the development and deployment of next-generation Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs). Nova Carter integrates the Segway RMP Lite 220 differential drive system, the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, and a comprehensive sensor suite into a fully functional robot, ready to use out of the box. Thanks to Segway’s years of expertise in robot design and engineering, Nova Carter is packed with design features that are not only ideal for prototyping, but also ensure reliable large-scale deployment.

Nova Carter is engineered to seamlessly integrate with the best-in-class NVIDIA Isaac™ AMR autonomy platform, which enables Nova Carter to proficiently execute tasks such as surround perception, 3D mapping, and autonomous navigation. By harnessing the full range of software offerings in the NVIDIA Isaac™ platform, training and deploying entire fleets of AMRs becomes streamlined.

Key Product Features

Co-developed by Segway and NVIDIA, Nova Carter expedites the transition from manual forklift and guided vehicles to full autonomy. With its rich sensor portfolio, powerful AI compute capabilities, and customization, Nova Carter can operate safely among humans in highly dynamic, unstructured environments. This revolutionary robot significantly enhances productivity, reduces costs, accelerates large-scale deployment, while ensuring operational safety in warehouse management, logistics handling, and more.

Powerful Chassis

Nova Carter’s Chassis delivers exceptional shock absorption performance and off-road capabilities. With a significant battery capacity and high-performance motor hub, the Nova Carter offers unparalleled payload and an impressive operating range.

Diverse Sensor Suite

Nova Carter supports multiple sensors including four stereo cameras, four fisheye cameras, two 2D lidars and one 3D lidar for perception and autonomous navigation.

Advanced AI Computing Platform

Thanks to the Jetson AGX Orin SoM, it offers 275 TOPS AI performance and 64GB memory for compute intensive models. With its preconfigured OS and software, Nova Carter is an ideal platform for developing ROS-based applications and leveraging NVIDIA GPU hardware acceleration.

Custom Services for Enterprises

Customers can take cloud-based map creation service and on-premise data center-based mission control in the Isaac AMR software stack. This helps optimize route planning with the NVIDIA® cuOpt™ engine and deliver up-to-date maps to the robots.

Production Ready

Nova Carter is packed with design features that are not only ideal for prototyping, but also ensure reliable large-scale deployment.
