WHEELTEC Sandtable Edition ROS Education Robot

The WHEELTEC Sandtable Edition ROS Education Robot is a high-performance development platform designed for university laboratories, educators, and advanced robotics hobbyists. Available in both Ackermann and Mecanum chassis configurations, this fully assembled robot is optimised for studying autonomous driving, deep learning, and robot navigation. It provides a comprehensive, out-of-the-box solution for mastering ROS-based mapping and path planning.

Complete autonomous driving sandbox kit

The robot is shipped fully assembled and ready to use right out of the box, saving valuable setup time in educational environments. It includes a dedicated sandbox track layout, a model traffic light, and a complete set of iron traffic signs to simulate real-world autonomous driving scenarios.

Flagship ROS education platform

Designed for introductory ROS education and university laboratory scenarios, this platform integrates a decade of chassis technology and six years of ROS video course expertise. It features an industrial-design V550 series chassis, high-performance lidar, and a depth camera to support deep learning and robot navigation mapping.

Dual chassis and hardware specifications

Users can choose between the V550 Ackermann edition with front-wheel servo steering and rear-wheel differential drive, or the V550 Mecanum edition with a pendulum suspension. Both configurations are powered by MG513 metal gear reduction motors with 500-line AB phase GMR encoders, achieving a maximum speed of 1m/s and a payload capacity of 4kg.
