GPS Waypoint Navigation Package

POINT TO POINT NAVIGATION KIT

The GPS Waypoint Navigation Package is a hardware and software kit that allows users to select a GPS waypoint or series of waypoints from a workstation, and direct a robot to autonomously travel between the points, with support for obstacle detection. The kit is designed for academic and corporate researchers, and includes:

  • GPS Sensors
  • Waypoint Setting and Command Software
  • Operator Control Unit
  • Support for lidar and obstacle detection

Features

VIEW FROM ABOVE

Integrating the robot’s GPS data with an intuitive graphical interface allows the user to easily view the robot’s surroundings, create and select waypoints, and track the robot’s progress along its current route.

PRECISION GPS

High precision GPS technology enables the robot to accurately localize, find way points, and travel between them without the need for human intervention.

OBSERVE AND DETECT

The lidar upgrade option gives your robot the benefit of obstacle detection, so if an obstacle stands between the robot and its goal waypoint, a collision is avoided.
