QNav DriveKit
A software-defined autonomous driving retrofit for compatible vehicles. It starts with low-speed, controlled-site fleets and specialised research vehicles, where autonomy can be proven safely.
Private industrial yard vehicle
Low-speed, supervised cargo movement between fixed stations on a restricted site, with defined routes, trained operators, emergency stops and engineered access control.
Closed-course research car
A compatible donor vehicle instrumented for mapping, perception and supervised autonomy research on a controlled proving ground.
Modular vehicle autonomy architecture
Feasibility depends on actuation safety, fault tolerance, vehicle integration and validation, not on AI inference alone. DriveKit is designed around that.
Vehicle interface
Approved by-wire control and feedback for steering, braking and throttle.
Sensor suite
Cameras, GNSS, IMU and LiDAR, selected for the operating domain.
Autonomy compute
Perception, localization and planning on automotive-grade edge compute.
Vehicle supervisor
Enforces operational limits and runs continuous diagnostics.
Independent safety
E-stop, fallback behaviour and a guaranteed safe state, kept separate from the AI.
"Any car" is the vision, not the first claim.
Autonomy cannot be made safe on every vehicle just by adding a computer. We classify every candidate platform honestly before work begins.
Best initial fit
Electronically actuated, OEM-supported platforms with known steering, brake and throttle interfaces.
Possible with retrofit
Vehicles that need redundant actuators, steering/braking integration and extensive independent testing.
Not plug-and-play
Legacy mechanical vehicles without safe actuator access, feedback, redundancy or compatible interfaces.
Phased, gated, and validated.
- Phase 0 · 0–3 months
Feasibility
Vehicle selection, interface study, technical risk assessment, legal and insurance review.
- Phase 1 · 3–9 months
Controlled prototype
Supervised closed-course pilot with redundant stop mechanisms and structured logging.
- Phase 2 · 9–18 months
Site pilot
Validated operational design domain, independent assessments and acceptance tests.
- Phase 3 · 18–30+ months
OEM / fleet licensing
Vehicle-specific integrations, support contracts and quality-system readiness.
Standards-aligned engineering
Safety, cybersecurity and legal operation are gating conditions, not afterthoughts.
