What it is
An autonomous robot ready for research
The AgileX Scout Mini R&D Kit pairs the Scout Mini four-wheel-drive chassis with a LiDAR, an Intel RealSense D435 depth camera, an NVIDIA computer, a display, and a router. It arrives ready for localization, mapping, navigation, and obstacle avoidance work.
The Lite version uses a Jetson Nano and an EAI G4 LiDAR. The Pro version steps up to an AGX Xavier and a Velodyne VLP-16 3D LiDAR rated for up to 100 m.
Where the kit works
Built for three kinds of programs
University research labs
A ready base for SLAM, navigation, and autonomy research.
Advanced robotics courses
Students start with a working robot and complete development documents.
Outdoor autonomy testing
An all-terrain chassis with a long-range 3D LiDAR on the Pro.
