An autonomous mobility kernel designed to bridge the urban data gap. NavX repurposes advanced safety logic to navigate, map, and serve informal settlements and unmapped disaster zones.
Initialize System_
Standard navigation stacks optimize strictly for T_min (Velocity). In dense, informal, or disaster-struck environments, this leads to failure.
Current robots are blind to Inequality, Infrastructure Decay, and Human Safety. 1 Billion people live in "unmapped" zones where the "fastest path" is often the most dangerous.
NavX introduces Risk-Aware Path Scoring.
By prioritizing Safety > Velocity, NavX autonomously navigates complex urban terrain, detecting hazards
(debris, blocked paths) in real-time.
RESULT: A deployable Digital Twin generator for inclusive city planning.
Route transparency via explicit cost functions. Building trust between autonomous agents and vulnerable communities.
Automatic re-planning < 200ms upon detecting debris, crowds, or structural risks. Designed for unstructured roads.
Seamless integration with City Digital Twins. Functions as a decentralized edge node for municipal data collection.
Real-time readout: "−18% Velocity, +40% Safety". Quantifiable trade-offs for emergency logistics.
C = (w_t × Time) + (w_r × Resilience) + (w_i × Inclusivity)
| MODE | T_Weight | R_Weight | I_Weight | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RESPONSE | 1.0 | 0.2 | 0.1 | *Formerly Velocity.* Emergency Mode. High speed for rapid intervention/First Responders. |
