Meet the XiaoR Geek ESP32 Hexapod Robot Kit: another educational robot kit that helps students master coding concepts. This hexapod is designed to work with an ESP32. It has 12 sets of actions built-in. You can control this robot with an Android app.
Meet the RB-VOGUI: an autonomous mobile robot for indoor and outdoor tasks. This robot has 150kg palyoad capacity. It has a max speed of 2.m5m/s. It lasts up to 6 hours on a 30Ah@48V battery. The RB-VOGUI comes with WiFi and Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity.
Here is an advanced robot kit with AI for advanced students. The HIWONDER JetAuto Jetson Nano Robot comes with a 3D depth camera, 7-inch screen, LiDAR navigation, and 6-micrphone array. The HIWONDER JetAuto Pro comes with app control. It is ready for Python, C++, and JavaScript coding.
Here is another high-end robot designed for more advanced students and researchers. The Jetson Nano Smart Robot Car has 4 x mecanum wheels to move in all directions. It comes with 24.G joystick and app control. The XiaoR Geek robot has a bunch of serial and I/O ports that lets you attach more sensors.
Here is another cool robot inspired by nature. Researchers have built these Click beetle-inspired robots that move using elastic energy. These insect-sized jumping robots can perform tasks in small spaces. The finding were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The below video shows how they work:
As Sameh Tawfick and his team explain:
The jumping mechanism uses dynamic buckling cascading and allows for a single stroke from a coiled artificial muscle to actuate an automatic sequence of shape transformations in a buckling beam
This is the UBTECH Alpha Mini: a tiny humanoid robot with face recognition, object recognition, and 4G LTE connectivity. It has 14 servo motors for flexible movement. This robot can perform dances, Kung fu, and other moves. It has LCD eyes to show motion.
This is the Omnia Disinfection Robot: a self driving UVC robot designed to kill bacteria and viruses. It comes with adjustable disinfection setting, smart navigation to move around obstacles, and sensors to operate safely next to humans and pets.
This is the XRC Brawler V2 : a 1/5th scale high speed RC tank with plenty of power and torque to take on uneven terrain. It is powered by 2 x 2200kv castle motors and 2 x Castle Mamba Monster X ESCs. It can reach its top speed in seconds and can do wheelies.
Here is another 4-legged robot designed for your research projects. This Programmable Bionic 4-legged Robot has aluminum alloy legs and body. It also supports 8 steel motors. It can be powered by a Raspberry Pi 4B or NVIDIA Jetson Nano.
You can control this robot with a joystick. 4 packages are available for you to choose from.
There is no better way to learn about robots than building or programming your own. This Self-balancing Programmable Bike Robot is a STM32 robot with an inertial momentum wheel that maintains its balance when nudged. It comes with Android app control. The battery lasts more than an hour.
This self balancing bike can maintain its balance on up to 30 degree slopes. The above video shows it in action.
