WHEELTEC Moveit Robotic Arm Robot Car

The WHEELTEC Moveit Robotic Arm Robot Car is an advanced, highly configurable development platform designed for ROS and STM32 robotics research. It is ideal for university students, educators, and professional makers looking to master robotic manipulation, mapping, and navigation. With multiple chassis configurations and comprehensive learning materials, this platform provides a robust foundation for practical robotics engineering.

Comprehensive learning resources

This platform comes with over 16GB of code-level video tutorials and complete development documentation to support your learning journey. It is available with an optional 6 degrees of freedom robotic arm to facilitate advanced manipulation and motion planning tasks.

Integrated mobile manipulation platform

The physical layout integrates a multi-degrees-of-freedom robotic arm, an Astra series RGBD depth camera, and a lidar sensor onto a sturdy multi-tiered metal chassis. This design allows for simultaneous mobile navigation and precise robotic arm manipulation in complex environments.

Versatile chassis configurations

Choose from multiple drive structures including a 4-wheel Mecanum wheel setup with pendulum suspension, a tracked version with independent suspension, or a 4WD option. Depending on the configuration, the platform supports payloads up to 6kg, speeds up to 1.4m/s, and offers a light-load battery life of up to 7 hours.

Advanced hardware and software

Powered by an STM32F407VET6 master controller running FreeRTOS and MG513 metal gear reduction motors with high-precision GMR encoders. It supports multiple ROS master controllers like the Raspberry Pi 4B and Jetson Nano, running ROS1 Melodic/Noetic or ROS2 Galactic/Humble alongside Leishen N10P/M10P lidars and Astra RGBD cameras.
