In this episode of Conversations at the Edge, Au‑Zone demonstrates why single‑sensor robots are obsolete. By fusing vision, lidar and radar on NXP’s i.MX 8 Plus, the Raven platform delivers multimodal sensing and smarter edge AI perception. With the seamless integration of a robotics operating system (ROS) and Zephyr, developers build robust autonomous systems through access to sensor topics, bounding boxes and occupancy grids—all configurable via an application programming interface (API) or web interface. Through waterproof and ready for deployment, the system enables safer, smarter robotics in challenging environments, proving multimodal sensing is the future of autonomous machines. Camera‑radar fusion overcomes dust, fog and lighting challenges, proving single‑sensor robots are no longer enough.
