Quickstart

Starter content

This quickstart is scaffolding for your docs — replace the package names and code with your real SDK surface as it lands.

Requirements

Python 3.10+ or Node.js 20+
A camera, recorded sensor log, or the bundled sample dataset
Optional: ROS 2 Humble or newer for robot integration

Install

pip install openhorizon

Run your first pipeline

Point the SDK at a sensor source and subscribe to structured perception events:

from openhorizon import Pipeline

pipeline = Pipeline.from_source("sample://warehouse-run-01")

for event in pipeline.perception():
    print(event.objects, event.pose)

You should see a stream of perception events: detected objects, estimated poses, and surface geometry, updated in real time.

Where to go next

Perception

What the perception stream contains and how to configure it.

Spatial memory

Persist what the machine sees into a queryable world model.

Real-time reasoning

Close the loop: plan and act on live context.
