Description:

Scout Mini + Mecanum wheels: high mobility

If you don't know anything about the Scout Mini mobile platform, yet, here it is in a nutshell:

• An all-terrain profile with the ability to overcome obstacles up to 7 cm high and slopes up to 30° ;
• A maximum speed of 10 km/h unloaded, making the Scout Mini the fastest Agile X robot ;
• Independent suspension and differential steering with no minimum steering angle.

In short, the mobile robot Scout Mini is an ace on the road: it provides an extremely smooth ride both indoors and outdoors. All that remained was to boost its robustness with the addition of these 4 Mecanum wheels, which allow it to go from a maximum payload of 10 to 50 kg. The interesting thing about this new feature is not only to use the Mini Scout as a full-fledged UGV transport unit, but also to significantly increase its level of equipment.

A ROS mobile robotic platform to exploit

What to do with that 50 kilos of payload? Think about the new peripherals to take on board your Scout Mini: industrial robotic arm, weather station, LiDAR laser rangefinders, IMU, display screen…

The possibilities are numerous and are mainly facilitated by the CAN/RS232 interface, which not only allows optimal tracking of navigation data, but also the addition of robotic equipment for exploring, monitoring, experimenting, hacking or learning.
