Transitive Robotics
"Full-Stack Robotics"
Menlo Park, California middleware maker; its open-source Transitive framework links robots to the cloud and web for fleet monitoring and teleoperation.
Transitive Robotics is a software company based in Menlo Park, California. It develops the open-source Transitive framework, middleware for connecting robots to cloud services and web-based interfaces without custom integration work for each new robot or backend.
The framework centers on a shared data model that keeps state synchronized across a robot, a cloud relay, and a browser front end via the MQTTSync protocol, and works with or without ROS. Functions are packaged as capabilities, each bundling a robot-side ROS node, a cloud component, and a web UI widget combined into a fleet portal. Capabilities include WebRTC Video for peer-to-peer camera streaming without open inbound ports, Remote Teleop for browser-based driving with a gamepad or VR controller, and ROS Tool for inspecting ROS topics from a browser. Transitive 2.0 added ClickHouse storage and Grafana dashboards.
Transitive Robotics was founded by Christian Fritz, who holds a PhD in artificial intelligence from the University of Toronto and previously served as VP of Software at Savioke, scaling its Relay delivery robot fleet from 5 to more than 100 units on three continents. The framework runs on more than 100 robots at companies including Outrider, Bonsai Robotics, Optimotive, and Atlas Robotics, and can be self-hosted or hosted by Transitive. The company is a small team and has not raised disclosed funding.
