Robot programming made simple
OLO wraps robot visualization, simulation and programmability into an integrated web platform. Working on top of ROS2, OLO allows both robotics beginners and experts to go from idea to working robot in minutes instead of months.
Robotics is full of possibility. But for too long, that potential has been locked away.
The old way
ROS2 development is powerful but complex. Setting up rosbridge, managing connections, handling video streams, and building autonomous behaviours requires deep expertise and significant development time.
Whether you're a researcher testing ideas, a developer building solutions, or an OEM wanting to make your hardware easier to program—the barriers have been real.
The OLO way
OLO bridges ROS2 to the internet with the OLO Appliance—robot-side software that handles the complexity so you can focus on building.
Use our JavaScript or Python SDK to control robots, stream video, process sensor data, and build autonomous behaviours. Code in the browser with the SDK Playground, or build standalone applications that run locally or on the appliance.
Whether you're getting started or building advanced solutions, OLO adapts to your needs
SDK Playground
Easy StartConnect your ROS-enabled robot and start coding immediately–no installation required. The browser-based playground handles connection automatically.
- Zero setup, instant connection
- JavaScript and Python support
- AI-assisted code generation
- Live video and sensor feeds
Standalone SDK
Full ControlBuild production applications with the standalone JavaScript or Python SDK. Run scripts locally with full access to ROS2 topics, services, and native rclpy integration.
- Direct ROS2 and rclpy access
- Script orchestration and chaining
- Global variables for data sharing
- Run on-appliance or remotely
