Clearpath demonstrates Hovermap integration on Jackal UGV
Clearpath Robotics demonstrated an Emesent Hovermap LiDAR payload on Jackal UGV for mobile 3D mapping in an outdoor industrial environment.
Evidence notes
- Clearpath mounted Emesent's self-contained Hovermap LiDAR mapping unit on a Jackal UGV and operated it at an outdoor industrial facility.
- The integration combined Jackal's ground mobility with Hovermap's SLAM-based 3D capture for mapping areas that are difficult to survey manually.
- The demonstration showed how the sensor package can extend a research UGV into repeatable industrial reality-capture workflows.
Company context
