ROS-based Robot
RB-KAIROS
With the RB-KAIROS robot simulation, you can do similar stuff without the risk of damaging the real version. You can use it to test any algorithms, such as Robot Navigation, Motion Planning, Manipulation, Object detection, and Pick & Place. Once you have your code working in the simulation, you can directly execute it in the real RB-KAIROS robot, with minimal to no changes!
Works with
ROS 1
About TurtleBot 3
The main advantage RB-KAIROS series is its omnidirectional cinematic base, which allows it to access through narrow spaces, and its large load capacity: up to 250 Kg. In addition, it has integrated software, a wide range of tutorials and examples of its ROS software.
These innovative collaborative mobile manipulators are specially designed for the development of industrial applications. RB-KAIROS is the ideal series for industrial mobile handling tasks:
- Handling (pick & place)
- Loading / positioning
- Mounting
- Assembling
- Screwed, drilled, …
- Inspection and verification
RB-KAIROS allows to extend the advantages of the robotic arm that it integrates since, thanks to its mobility, it can work in different areas in a totally flexible way.
