LABO-1 is an autonomous mobile robot developed for light indoor experiments in close quarters. Its 4 wheel electronic differential drive allows the frequent sharp turns required in such experiments. Flat payload area permits easy allocation of experiment specific loads to accommodate a wide range of experiments.
- Obstacle avoidance in complex real environment using active infrared sensors
- 4 wheel differential drive allows smooth turning with zero radius
- Free space detection and landmark-based navigation using optional vision system
- Optional front and back bumpers with built-in contact detection sensors for operation in highly confined areas
