NVIDIA Redtail provides deep learning and computer vision components for autonomous visual navigation of drones and ground vehicles, centered on the TrailNet DNN and Stereo DNN models running on NVIDIA Jetson. It includes pre-trained networks, training instructions, ROS nodes, and hardware guidance for building autonomous robots in unstructured environments.

Use cases

  • build an autonomously navigating drone for forest trails
  • estimate depth from a stereo camera with deep learning
  • run visual navigation DNNs on Jetson
  • train a trail-following neural network from scratch
  • drive a ground rover autonomously with vision
  • get pre-trained navigation models for mobile robots

When to choose

  • you need reference DNN models and ROS code for vision-based robot navigation on Jetson hardware
  • you want to reproduce TrailNet or Stereo DNN research results

When to avoid

  • you need an actively maintained project - it is no longer developed by NVIDIA
  • you work outside ROS/Jetson ecosystems or need modern framework support
