Description
The Pickerbot Mini is a mobile pick-and-drop robot based on ROS (Robot Operating System) – designed for researchers, developers, educators, students and ambitious hobbyists. It combines a mobile mecanum platform with a robot arm and extensive sensors into a ready-to-use learning and development platform.
The Pickerbot Mini is equipped with a built-in ROS computer, a 3-axis robot arm with soft gripper, LiDAR and depth camera, an STM32 controller for motor, power supply and IMU, as well as a metal chassis with omnidirectional mecanum wheels. ROS and Ubuntu come pre-installed including all essential packages and drivers – so the platform is ready to go within minutes.
Thanks to its compact design and affordable entry price, the Pickerbot Mini is ideal for ROS beginners and equally suited as a prototyping platform for research and development projects. Comprehensive classroom materials (manual, tutorials, sample code) make it easy to integrate into the curriculum; the system is expandable with accessories such as voice recognition modules, LCD display or external keyboard.
