The Intelligence Layer Behind Real Autonomy

The Intelligence Layer Behind Real Autonomy

From the sensor stack that reads the world to the platform that unifies every deployment. A deep look at how Thoro's technology is built, and why it's built this way.

01 - Perception & Localization

Visual-SLAM

Knowing exactly where you are

Thoro's multi-modal SLAM architecture fuses 3D LiDAR, depth camera, and IMU data into a highly accurate picture of the robot's position and environment - all on-edge, with minimal infrastructure required. No reflectors. No guide wires.

360° FOV, No blind spots

Full surround awareness (walls, racks, pallets, people) updated faster than human reaction time

Multi-Modal Sensor Fusion

LiDAR handles range and geometry. Camera provides texture and scene context. Together, they eliminate the blind spots each sensor has alone

3D Obstacle Detection

3D LiDARs enable us to identify obstacles with pin-point accuracy the moment they come in view.

Augmented with AI

Domain-specific models for greater environmental awareness.

Pallet Detection Model

Our highest-performing model. Trained on real warehouse data from our customer workflows. Detects pallet corners, entry faces, and alignment geometry with sub-centimeter accuracy, even with overwrap, partial occlusion, or non-standard load configurations.

Person Detection

Real-time detection of people in the robot's operating zone, including partial occlusion behind racks or pallets.

Ground Plane Detection

Real-time detection of free-drivable space that the robot is able to use to operate in freely and execute tasks.

02 - Physical AI

AI trained at real warehouses

AI trained at real warehouses

Thoro's AI models are built in-house by a talented team with sensor data from all Thoro deployed systems. Our models are tuned to the specific visual and physical challenges of industrial environments: dust, varying light, overwrapped pallets, partially occluded people, and non-standard load configurations.

Every deployment expands the training set. Every new workflow adds data. Every edge case caught in the field improves the model for the entire fleet.

03 - Safety-First Approach

Safety built into the architecture

Thoro's safety system isn't a layer on top of the autonomy stack, it's woven through it. From dynamic safety fields that adapt in real-time to system-level certification, safety is a first-class design constraint.

Functional Safety

Our autonomy platform is designed and certified to align with internationally recognized safety standards, including ISO and CSA standards

Dynamic Safety Fields

Safety zones that adapt to real-time machine speed, orientation and direction of travel. Tighter in slow zones, expanded at speed. Always ready to slow down.

Redundant Sensor Coverage

No single point of failure. LiDAR, camera, and IMU provide overlapping safety coverage whenever units are in autonomy.

CoreFlex is Thoro's next-generation modular autonomy architecture. A flexible, platform-agnostic kit, that dramatically compresses the time and cost of bringing a new autonomous product to market. Built on NVIDIA Jetson Modules, designed for any form factor, and backed by Thoro's full software and operations stack.

01

No Costly Redesigns

Standardized mechanical and electrical interfaces mean Thoro integrates into any OEM vehicle without a massive engineering overhaul. De-risks the engineering investment for every new platform.

World-Class UI Ready to Ship

The Thoro interface is part of the package. OEM partners ship with a production-grade, on-board UI and cloud-connected operator experience on day one.

03

Proven in Production from Day One

Every Thoro deployment inherits validation from 1,300+ units already live. OEM partners aren't doing field validation from scratch, they're building on a proven base.
