InDro Cortex + InDro Controller Bundle

OVERVIEW

The InDro Cortex + Controller Bundle combines a compact, ROS 2-enabled robotics compute module with a browser-based interface for teleoperating, monitoring and developing on your robot:

• InDro Cortex is the on-board hardware: an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX (100 TOPS) with Wi-Fi, 5G (eSIM), power distribution and expandable I/O for plugging in payloads. Your data and code are stored locally and protected by secured access.
• InDro Controller is the software layer: a web-based platform that lets you control your robot over Wi-Fi or 5G, run commands and access all your payloads' data.

Together they remove the slow part of robotics development: integrating compute, connectivity and a usable interface before real research can begin. Mount Cortex on your UGV, quadruped, drone, ATV or custom platform, sign in from a browser, and your team is productive on day one.

WHY BUNDLE CORTEX WITH INDRO CONTROLLER?

Cortex works on its own as a system-agnostic ROS 2 developer kit. Adding InDro Controller turns it into a complete, ready-to-use development and teleoperation system:

WHAT INDRO CONTROLLER ADDS

InDro Controller is a browser-based UI for any ROS system, designed for beginners and experts alike to save time and energy. It is organized around four core capabilities:

• Instant visibility: Click any sensor to view live data and raw readings without configuration. System diagnostics show compute usage, battery and connectivity.
• Teleoperate anywhere: Control your robot over low-latency Wi-Fi or 5G with any game controller, with button remapping and live input feedback. Remote E-stop, status monitoring and multi-user notifications help keep operations safe. Two-way audio is supported with the right hardware.
• Develop faster: Run scripts and push code from browser consoles, with up to three terminals at once and no SSH. Manage Docker containers with built-in logs, stats and restart/stop controls. Add cameras and sensors by URL, as long as they have a ROS 2 driver.
• Easier simulation for autonomy: Load your URDF into a lightweight 3D simulator and view sensor data in real time. The auto-populated TF tree helps you check transforms and frame positions. Test goal-pose navigation and manipulator motion planning right in the browser.

Optional add-on, InDro Autonomy Package: adds full mission planning to the Controller's simulator and map tools. Contact us to find the right combination for your project.

CHOOSE YOUR CORTEX VERSION

The bundle pairs InDro Controller with the Cortex version that matches your development field. Each version adds sensing and positioning hardware on top of the Standard compute module, and you can see and manage it all from the browser-based Controller.

Need a specific sensor set? A Custom version is available and can be built around your project's requirements.

KEY FEATURES OF THE BUNDLE

• Hardware and Software, Designed Together: Cortex's ROS 2 environment and InDro Controller work in sync, cutting setup time for researchers and educators.
• Platform-Agnostic Compute: Compatible with ROS 2-based UGVs, robot dogs, UAVs, EVs, ATVs and other platforms.
• 100 TOPS of On-Board AI: NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX for perception, SLAM and autonomy workloads.
• Compact and Lightweight: 11 × 14 × 10 cm and 679 g, easy to mount on size- and weight-constrained robots.
• Payload Expansion: Add ROS 2-based cameras, LiDAR and RTK GNSS/INS through Cortex versions or custom configurations.
• Data Safety: Your data and code are stored locally on Cortex and protected by secured access.
• Built-In Safety Tools: Remote emergency stop and live autonomy status in the interface.
• Support Included: The InDro Controller subscription includes access to the InDro Support Team, one setup and training call upon delivery, and software upgrades throughout the subscription.
• 1-Year InDro Warranty

APPLICATIONS

• Remote Teleoperation: Operate UGVs and mobile robots over Wi-Fi or 5G with live camera feeds, gamepad control and remote E-stop.
• Academic Research and Education: Get labs productive quickly with no per-desktop ROS tool installation, and teach teleoperation, payload integration, data analysis and ROS 2 autonomy with minimal setup.
• SLAM and Autonomous Navigation Development: Visualize sensor data, verify transforms and test navigation goals in simulation before field trials.
• Outdoor and Field Robotics: Use RTK GNSS/INS-equipped Cortex versions with map-based tracking for outdoor autonomy development.
• Remote Development and Debugging: Push code, manage Docker containers and read logs without being next to the robot.
• Shared Robot Platforms: Multi-user notifications show who currently has control, which suits teaching labs and multi-team projects.
