Autonomy Kit

Autonomy Hardware Stack with Jetson AGX Thor, PoE & RTK

The Hellbender Autonomy Kit removes the pain of hardware integration for teams building autonomy into heavy duty robotic systems, vehicles and machinery. It includes the core hardware components of an autonomous system that have been built to work together out of the box. Proven in complex systems Hellbender has built for its customers, the Autonomy Kit lets teams focus less on integration battles, and more on autonomy and application development.

Components include:

• Helm carrier for NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor with 10 high-bandwidth Ethernet ports to reduce networking hardware
• Sluice power board that consolidates system level power management to a single board, with an optional battery backup connector for mission critical compute
• Delta managed PoE switch with power regulation and distribution for easy integration of dense time-synchronized sensor arrays
• Bearing positioning board for accurate, flexible, and low cost positioning and timing
• Ferry Ethernet converter for simple integration with familiar automotive sensors
