Enter the next level of autonomous intralogistics with simultaneous live localization and mapping (SLAM) for mobile robots ­- regardless whether AGV or AMR.

NODE.localize is a flexible autonomy skill for localization and mapping in industrial environments. It uses Live SLAM to create reliable maps in large or complex facilities and maintains stable localization during daily operation.

Designed for dynamic environments, NODE.localize continuously detects relevant changes and updates maps automatically. This allows robots to remain reliably localized even when layouts, stock levels, or traffic patterns change over time.

The system uses multi-sensor fusion to combine data from wheel odometry, IMU, multiple LiDARs, and additional sensors such as cameras or 3D LiDAR where available. This makes NODE.localize suitable for demanding industrial conditions without requiring changes to the physical environment.

For lean hardware setups, NODE.localize supports 2D LiDAR with a field of view greater than 270° and can also use safety LiDAR data from a ground-level mounting position. Typical global localization accuracy is 30 to 50 mm when using safety LiDARs and can be improved to up to ±10 mm with a dedicated localization LiDAR.

To speed up deployment, initial maps can be created not only through on-site recording but also from existing CAD or point cloud data.
