The idea

This mobile robotic system opens up new perspectives in learning.

The objective

As a mobile robotic application for training, Robotino® incorporates appropriate technology and offers interesting tasks.

Technical data

• Diameter: 37 cm
• Height: 21 cm
• Weight: approx. 11 kg
• Chassis: laser-welded stainless steel
• Motors: 3
• Speed: max. 10 km/h
• Infrared distance sensors: 9

Learning content

Robotino® offers a broad spectrum of learning content for basic and advanced technical training: sensor technology, drive technology, motor control, regulation technology, mechatronics, programming and image processing.

Motivation

The robotic learning system is ready for immediate use and can carry out tasks in industry, science or the world of sport. Additional sensors or actuators can be added at any time.

Movement

Robotino® has omnidirectional drive: with three wheels, it can move forwards, backwards and sideways or perform a standing turn.

Operation

The graphical programming and learning environment communicates directly with the robotic system via WLAN. By this means, users can send signals to the motor control unit and can display, scale and evaluate sensor values. Even complex tasks can be solved step by step using prepared function blocks.
