Description

WD Autonomous Outdoor Robot Development Platform for Material Handling (HK1500) – Configurable

This is a 6WD robot that uses six of our heavy-duty motors and 13″ tiller tires. The wheels are mounted directly to the motor shaft for simplicity. High ground clearance, high payload, and powerful motors make this robot a workhorse.

The robot is being sold in the configuration listed below. The robot is fully assembled, wired, programmed with speed control, tested and ready to run. A ROS control package is available as an option.
