SUMMIT XL OMNI

Robotnik

Overview

The SUMMIT XL OMNI is a modification of the Summit XL with mecanum wheels mounted. It has omnidirectional kinematics based on 4 high power motorwheels. Each wheel integrates a hub brushless motor with gearbox and (optional) encoder. The odometry is computed with the use of the four encoders and a high precision angular sensor mounted inside the chassis.

The strong mechanical structure allows to carry much heavier loads than the standard Summit (it's smaller brother). There are several suspension shocks possibilities. They can also be mounted at several positions to modify the robot clearance.

The robot base can navigate autonomously or teleoperated by means of a PTZ camera, that transmits video in real time.

Sensors

The common sensor options include a Hokuyo laser scanner and a range of RTK-DGPS kits. It also has internal (USB; RS232, GPIO and RJ45) and external connectivity (USB, 12 and 24VDC) to easily add custom components.

Control

The control architecture is open-source and modular, based on ROS. ROS framework defines a well organized robot software architecture and includes hundreds of user contributed packages and sets of packages called stacks, that implement functionality as localization and mapping, planning, manipulation, perception, etc.
This characteristic simplifies the software development cycle and allows easy integration and reutilization of software components whether they are device drivers or state of the art algorithms in vision, SLAM, point cloud processing, grasping, planning, etc.

Applications

• Research and education
• Surveillance
• Military
• Remote monitoring
• Access to hazardous areas
