X80 datasheet

WiFi Mobile Robot Development Platform with extreme mobility and Video/Audio

Capability

This ready to use mobile robot platform is designed for researchers developing advanced

robot applications such as remote monitoring, telepresence and autonomous

navigation/patrol.

Mechanics

The X80 is the result of extensive efforts to develop a robot that would be fast and strong,

while itself remaining lightweight and nimble. The wheel-based platform’s two 12V DC

motors each supply 300 oz.-inches(22kg.cm) of torque to the X80’s 18 cm (7 in.) wheels,

yielding a top speed in excess of 1 m/s (3.3 ft/s). Two high-resolution (1200 count per

wheel cycle) quadrature encoders mounted on each wheel provide high-precision

measurement and control of wheel movement. Weighing only 3.5 kg (7.7 lb.), the system

is light, but it can carry an additional payload of 10 kg (22 lb.).

Sensors X80 offers full WiFi (802.11g) wireless, multimedia, sensing and motion capabilities and comes with a wide range of sensor, camera, and audio modules, sufficient to serve in any variety of applications. The X80 offers broad expandability as well for projects that may require additional sensors, even specialized modules. Powered by separate RC servo motors, the integrated camera head can pan and tilt independently.

The X80 includes all WiRobot development software components (for MS Windows 2000 and up), enabling easy access to all data and information in a standard Microsoft Windows programming environment (e.g., MS VB and VC++). Under the approach of using a separate PC for high-level control, there are no longer onboard restrictions on a mobile system’s processing power, memory and storage. For users of non-Windows operating systems (e.g.
