Ricbot, a wheeled sensor platform

Ricbot is intended for fast deployment to areas of interest.

Main features:

  • Reused motors and wheels from an old "Elector Wheelie" platform
  • Designed to fit into a normal car for deployment, i.e can be disassembled to no more than 55cm in height.
  • No more than 25-30 kg, requiring 1 or 2 persons to load or unload.
  • Wheel-odometry recording (and timestamped)
  • Camera image recording (and timestamped), the intention is Realsense D435.
  • Maybe GNSS recording too.
  • Manual remote control.
