The LoCoBots are for mapping, navigation, and object manipulation.
They enable researchers, educators, and students to focus on high-level code development instead of hardware and building out lower-level code.
Built Atop the iRobot Create® 3 Base.
The iRobot Create® 3 provides a base for the LoCoBot that’s packed full of sensors. Running on ROS 2, the base exposes its internal interfaces, sensor output, and actuators through parameters, topics, services, and actions for easy integration into robotics projects.
Packed with Sensors
A stereo depth camera mounted to a controllable pan & tilt mechanism and an optional 2D LiDAR give the LoCoBot a 360° view of its surroundings for mapping, navigation, manipulation, and perception. The depth camera provides color images, depth images, pointclouds, and a live camera feed while the lidar produces laser scans or generated pointclouds.
