We are the Leaders of Real, Off-Road Autonomy
About us
At Overland AI, we are redefining the landscape of defense technology with our pioneering approach to ground autonomy. We’re not talking commercial trucks and taxis on dirt roads. We’re talking no roads, no GPS, going cross country. Our OverDrive autonomy stack equips ground vehicles with the ability to maneuver tactically and independently across challenging terrains. For nearly a decade, our co-founder Byron Boots, a renowned figure in robotics and machine learning, has collaborated with the US Army Research Laboratory to enhance robotic capabilities for defense. This collaboration, coupled with rigorous testing in the DARPA RACER program, underpins our cutting-edge solutions. Our mission is clear: to transform land operations by delivering the most advanced and dependable ground autonomy solutions to the U.S. Military and Partner Nations. Our technology, capable of operating in GPS-denied environments and under various adverse conditions such as rain, fog, and night, sets new standards in the field. Join us as we continue to advance this crucial technology.

“Combat engineering operations are some of the most intricate and hazardous missions for operational units, and they demand capabilities that have been proven reliable in the field without human intervention.” —CEO Byron Boots Read Overland AI's press release for more details on our partnership with the XVIII Airborne Corps at the Sandhills Project, and how we are integrating ground autonomy into Operation ARTEMIS CROWN: https://lnkd.in/gpkWi8Bx

We are proud to partner with the XVIII Airborne Corps on the Sandhills Project to advance the integration of ground autonomy in combat engineering operations. Catch a first glimpse of our work in Operation ARTEMIS CROWN.
This week, the Sandhills Project successfully conducted Operation ARTEMIS CROWN I and Operation ICARUS ALLOY I at Fort Liberty, NC. These unit-level experimentation events were pivotal in bringing together key stakeholders from both government and industry to rigorously test and validate our latest suppression and reduction technologies. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to the success of these operations. Special appreciation goes to our partners at: - Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) - U.S. Army DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory - U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) - Army Applications Laboratory Your collaboration has been instrumental in accelerating our project's progress. Be Relentless!

High-speed autonomous navigation through densely vegetated woodlands and fields in central Indiana. These environments can be a particularly challenging for autonomous ground vehicles since vegetation occupies space yet can often be driven *through.* The autonomous vehicle occupies the center of the frame. The corresponding cost map is displayed in the lower left corner and shows the perceived traversability of the environment. The key is appreciating that some types of vegetation like tall grass are traversable, while others, like dense brush and trees, are not. This is real off-road autonomy: no prior maps, no pre-defined path, no teleoperation. Just realtime (1x) video of high-speed point-to-point navigation using onboard sensing and compute.

Drone footage of our Overdrive autonomy stack piloting a 12 ton tracked vehicle cross county. You can see the platform squaring up at the base of hills and quickly climbing up steep slopes as it navigates toward a waypoint on top of the ridge. This is real off-road autonomy: no prior maps, no pre-defined path, no teleoperation. Just realtime (1x) video of high-speed point-to-point navigation using onboard sensing and compute.

Threading the needle. Step one: see the opening. Step two: choose the line. Step three: precise control through the water and up the tank trail. This is real off-road autonomy: no prior maps, no pre-defined path, no teleoperation. Just realtime (1x) video of high-speed point-to-point navigation using onboard sensing and compute.

We have always gone straight after the hardest problems first. Check out this throwback to early work on off-road autonomy in our co-founder Byron Boots' lab at the University of Washington as we pushed our autonomous RZR's through a wide range of difficult off-road conditions. That is our co-founder Greg Okopal riding the robot in the safety driver seat. This is real off-road autonomy: no prior maps, no pre-defined path, no teleoperation. Just realtime (1x) video of high-speed point-to-point navigation using onboard sensing and compute.

Back in the field! One of the challenges of autonomous cross country movement and maneuver is finding lines through terrain that are fast and efficient while minimizing vehicle roll. This requires accurate onboard perception of terrain geometry, planning that squares up to slopes, and precise vehicle control. Raw video of our Overdrive autonomy stack piloting a 12 ton tracked platform as it works its way through a series of drops and berms before hopping onto a main supply route. This is real off-road autonomy: no prior maps, no pre-defined path, no teleoperation. Just realtime (1x) video of high-speed point-to-point navigation using onboard sensing and compute.
