Scout Mini Mecanum Autonomous Mobile Robot Agilex
Find more information about the product below.
AgileX’s Scout Mini, equipped with Mecanum wheels, offers remarkable agility for indoor use. If you’re new to this mobile platform, here’s a look at its capabilities:
- A true all-terrain profile, capable of crossing obstacles up to 7 cm high and slopes up to 30° inclination.
- A maximum speed of 20 km/h when empty, making the Scout Mini the fastest robot in the AgileX range.
- Independent suspension and differential drive, with no minimum turning radius, for optimum handling.
The Scout Mini combines robustness, speed and exceptional agility to meet the needs of indoor applications.
Scout Mini Mecanum performs well in indoor driving.
It provides extremely smooth and agile driving in indoor environments. To further enhance its robustness, AgileX has added 4 Mecanum wheels to this robot. Thanks to this improvement, the maximum payload of the Scout Mini has increased from 10 to 50 kg.
This new feature has a dual benefit: on the one hand, it allows the Scout Mini to be used as a true autonomous transport vehicle, and on the other hand, it significantly increases the equipment possibilities of this mobile robot. With its new Mecanum wheels and increased payload, the Scout Mini reinforces its status as a versatile and high-performance robot for indoor applications.
Developing on a ROS mobile robotics platform
With its 50 kg payload, the AgileX Scout Mini becomes a very versatile mobile robotic platform, compatible with ROS (Robot Operating System). You can think of many peripherals to embed on your Scout Mini to equip it according to your needs: a robotic arm, a weather station, LiDAR laser rangefinders, inertial measurement units (IMU), a display screen, etc.
The possibilities are endless and greatly facilitated by the Scout Mini's CAN/RS232 interface. This not only allows for optimal monitoring of navigation data, but also the addition of additional robotic equipment. Thus equipped, your Scout Mini will be able to explore, monitor, experiment, perform rapid prototyping or serve as a robotics learning platform.
