Advanced spatial mapping and localization, often known as SLAM, are the focus of the robotics business SLAMcore, based in the UK (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping). One of the co-founders of SLAMcore and its Chief Technical Officer (CTO), Owen Nicholson.
Nicholson has a background in engineering and robotics; he graduated from the University of Bristol with a Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering and later from Imperial College London with a Ph.D. in Robotics. He concentrated on creating algorithms for robotic perception during his doctoral studies, particularly in the fields of 3D object localisation and recognition.
In order to develop cutting-edge SLAM technology that could be used into a variety of robotic systems, from drones to driverless cars, Nicholson founded SLAMcore with his co-founders in 2016. The company's technology enables robots to precisely navigate and map their surroundings in real-time by combining cutting-edge sensors, such cameras and lidar, with complex algorithms.
Under Nicholson's direction, SLAMcore has swiftly become a market leader in the robotics sector, with its technology being utilized by a wide range of businesses and organizations in numerous sectors. The business has won various honors and recognition for their ground-breaking SLAM methodology, including being named one of Business Insider's "AI 50: Europe's Most Promising AI Companies" in 2020.

Hi guys, Philip English. I am a robotics enthusiast, reporting on the latest business application of robotics and automation. And so today, we’ve got Slam Core and we’ve got Owen. He’s gonna give us a quick overview, of the technology down there. So I was also the CEO and co-founder. And, for any of you who haven’t come across slam before, it stands for simultaneous, mapping and we’ll got it wrong, apologies, simultaneous localization and mapping, and Slam Core like develop the algorithms that allow basically robots and machines to understand their space around them. So as more robots come out, then they have a sense of where they are and obviously they can interact with our environment. So yeah, no, I sort of, if I were in, just to give us like an intro and like an overview really like about yourself to start with, Owen if that’s, okay.
Owen Nicholson
Sure. Awesome. Well, thanks a lot for the opportunity Phil, and thanks for the intro. So just to play back, I’m Owen, I’m the CEO at slam core. I’m also one of the original founders, and we’ve been going for about five years now. We originally span out from, Imperial college in the UK, one of the top, colleges in the world, founded by some of the absolute world leaders in the space. And it’s been, an incredible journey over the last five years, taking this technology and turning it into a real commercial products, which I’d love to tell you about all today.
Philip English
Alright, thank you for that overview. And so you’re saying that, also you’re one of the co-founders so I was on the west side, so it’s is it 4 main co-founders or
