FRBot:

Double ackerman steering system, sonar and vision sensing, Servopod controller. API + GUI+wireless (Developed in house)

Mobile Autonomous eXplorer

 

FRBot is all terrain robot with 4 wheel drive robot with twin, independent Ackerman steering for front and rear with tight turning radius (25 cm).  Running gear attached to sophisticated suspension system.

 

The goal of FRBot  is be used as low cost sophisticated research platform for researchers and universities. FRBot can be used as search and rescue robot because of its all terrain capability and highly rugged chassis which can withstand high speed collision.

 

The special feature of FRBot is most of its parts are off the shelf components. This enables to go from design to production quickly and manufacture large number of FRBot  without any hassles.

 

The FRBot contains

§         full fledged on board Pentium computer,  

§         powerful controller board to interface all

       sensors and motors to computer

§         pan and tilt head which houses stereo camera

§         a ring of 8 sonars spaced 45 degrees apart

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We are currently researching affordable robots for education in schools and universities. In collaboration with our partner Universities, we are focused on creating the embedded and teleportation software for such mobile robots.
