Gecko Robotics Explores Next-Generation Inspection Capabilities with Ouster’s New REV8 Native Color Lidar

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ouster, Inc. (Nasdaq: OUST) (“Ouster” or the “Company”), a leader in sensing and perception for Physical AI, announced today that Gecko Robotics, a leader in combining advanced robotics and AI-powered software, is leveraging Ouster’s new Rev8 digital lidar sensors to integrate novel data layers into its Cantilever operating platform.

Gecko Robotics currently utilizes Ouster’s digital lidar to navigate complex industrial environments and create high-fidelity digital twins of critical assets. As Gecko continues to scale its Cantilever operating platform, Ouster’s new Rev8 sensor suite offers an opportunity to further enhance Gecko’s data capture and push the boundaries of its “detect and repair" missions.

For Gecko Robotics, the capabilities of Ouster’s Rev8 translate directly into more reliable inspections. By leveraging Rev8’s unique ability to output inherently colorized, structured 3D data alongside ambient infrared and intensity data, Gecko’s AI software can more easily detect structural anomalies previously difficult to visualize.

“To protect the world's most critical infrastructure, Gecko is always experimenting with best-in-class sensors that enable richer data collection. Ouster's Rev8 lidar represents a massive leap in sensing capability,” said Chase David, Forward-Deployed Engineer at Gecko Robotics. “By capturing every 3D point in full color with even greater precision, our software can do more than just map the physical world – it can understand asset health with better certainty and deliver more actionable data to our customers.”

"Gecko Robotics is at the forefront of protecting critical infrastructure and we are proud to support their robotics platforms with Ouster digital lidar," said Cyrille Jacquemet, Chief Revenue Officer at Ouster. "Our new Rev8 sensors provide the unprecedented 3D color required to turn complex industrial data into predictive asset health insights, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in automated inspection."
