New product
Optional components
Kobuki is a low-cost mobile research base designed for education and research on state of art robotics. With continuous operation in mind, Kobuki provides power supplies for an external computer as well as additional sensors and actuators. Its highly accurate odometry, amended by our factory calibrated gyroscope, enables precise navigation.
Included components:
- Kobuki Base
- 1x4S1P battery 2200 mAh
- Battery charger
- USB communication cable
