• Large top mounting deck for additional devices
• Additional payload capacity: 15 kg (33 lb.)

This ready to use Dr. Robot Sputnik2 WiFi Mobile Development Platform (w/ Dual Cameras) is designed for researchers developing advanced robot applications such as remote monitoring, telepresence and autonomous navigation/patrol. The Sputnik2 is the result of extensive efforts to develop a robot that would be fast and strong, while itself remaining lightweight and nimble. The wheel-based platform's two 12V DC motors with integrated 800 Count per Cycle Optical Encoder each supply 550oz.-inch(40kg.cm) of torque to the i90's 18 cm (7 in.) wheels, yielding a top speed in excess of 0.75m/s. Weighing only 6kg (13 lb.), the system is light, but it can carry an additional payload of 15 kg (33 lb.). (Optional 40Kg).

The Sputnik2 offers broad expandability as well for projects that may require additional sensors, even specialized modules. Powered by separate RC servo motors, the integrated camera head can pan and tilt independently. With its integrated high bandwidth (54Mbps) WiFi 802.11G wireless module, the system can upload all sensor data to a PC or server at rates in excess of 10Hz. Similarly, streaming audio and video (up to 30 fps) either for direct monitoring or for processing by high-level AI schemes is a snap. Commands and instructions sent to the Sputnik2 via the same wireless link also pass at rates exceeding 10Hz, providing real-time control and access.
