I recently became involved in robotics projects and in order to push my own knowledge and understanding of robotics hardware and software I designed and built my own development platform.

This platform is based on a skid steer four wheel drive system capable of being operated by remote control or autonomously following preplanned waypoint routes.

The chassis is designed to be incredibly versatile allowing any sensor suite to be quickly and easily integrated as well as allowing the ability to integrate accessories and tools for different missions. The lower chassis is made of steel for strength and durability while the upper is TIG welded aluminum to prevent interference with magnetometers and other sensors.

If you have an interest in a custom robotics platform for your project don’t hesitate to reach out.
