TONY AV Kit
TONY (short for TO Navigate You) is a vehicle agnostic kit that drops into any vehicle for rapid conversion to full autonomy.
Be it Retrofit or Factory-fit, the TONY AV Kit is it!
Sense
TONY “senses” the world around your vehicle. The TONY bolt-in sensor package is a modular configuration of LiDAR, RADAR, camera, GPS, and inertial measurement sensors proven across a wide range of vehicles. With a standard configuration of mounting and wiring techniques, we rapidly install sensors to provide full 360 degree vision around the vehicle using a redundant and diverse array of sensors.
Think
TONY “thinks” and makes decisions on how to operate your vehicle. The TONY suite of modular E-Box components combined with Perrone Robotics’ patented MAX full-stack AV software platform brings advanced artificial intelligence to the task of autonomous driving. MAX comes equipped with a full suite of ready-baked and extensible maneuvers for navigation of complex driving environments. From full surround obstacle detection and collision avoidance, to roundabouts and intersections, to parking, pacing, passing, and more, MAX has been proven across a wide range of autonomous environments and situations for over 20 years. Furthermore, our patented approach for certification provides a solution for driverless operation in defined zones.
Act
TONY “acts” to drive your vehicle. The TONY Drive-By-Wire (DBW) package allows for rapid conversion of any vehicle’s steering, throttle, brake, shift, and auxiliary controls in an “over the top” fashion without interference with the stock vehicle drive system. Vehicles can be manually driven as originally equipped, and with the push of a button, placed into autonomous mode.
