Pioneer Manipulator Research Platform<\/p>\n

\"Manipulator<\/a><\/p>\n

The Pioneer Manipulator is an integrated mobile manipulation robot based on Adept MobileRobots\u2019 Pioneer LX research AIV (Autonomous Intelligent Vehicle). Designed to last for years of continuous service and equipped with our proprietary mapping and autonomous navigation software, the Pioneer LX provides an excellent building block for a mobile manipulation platform. Using laser and sonar sensors the Pioneer Manipulator will map and navigate with unrivaled sophistication.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve integrated our LX base with a pair of manipulation arms from Kinova that are also aimed at research applications. These manipulators are mounted to a custom designed torso with two different mounting points to allow for a higher or lower overall reach depending on your needs. At the top of the torso the Kinect for Windows V2 RGB-D Sensor is mounted on a pan \/ tilt stage allowing for continuous coverage of the workspace while the arms are mounted in either configuration. The manipulators are light, compact, and power efficient making them the perfect fit for integration into a mobile base. With plug and play functionality and a free SDK to get your projects moving right away these arms are also a perfect fit for your research application needs.<\/p>\n

The Pioneer Manipulator is a rugged, reliable, sophisticated robot that is purpose built for the research community and its needs. Designed to be extensively capable \u201cout of the box\u201d in a broad array of applications, the Pioneer Manipulator is sure to immediately enhance your new or existing program. <\/p>\n

The Pioneer Manipulator is an all-purpose mobile robot development system, ideal for research and applications including: <\/p>\n

Mobile manipulation
\n Mapping and Localization
\n Mobile robot autonomous navigation and positioning
\n Sensor testing
\n Vision research<\/p>\n

Features and Benefits<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Reliable \u2013 The Pioneer Manipulator\u2019s mobile base is designed for continuous duty and comes with a docking station that the robot will navigate to autonomously when charging is needed. Typical run time between charging is 6-1\/2 hours with all components in use. The robot can also traverse things like power cords, elevator gaps, and ramp transitions that can be troublesome to other mobile robots.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Full suite of Adept MobileRobots\u2019 mapping and navigation software \u2013 All Adept MobileRobots platforms include our Pioneer SDK, a complete set of programs and libraries that accelerate the development of robotics applications. The Pioneer SDK includes C++ libraries and partial interfaces for ROS, Python, Java, and MATLAB. The Pioneer Manipulator also comes with our laser mapping and navigation software, ARNL, which will allow you to begin mapping and autonomous navigation as soon as your robot is powered up. All our software is backed by our product support team.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Customizable \u2013 The Pioneer Manipulator is fully designed and fabricated by Adept MobileRobots. If your application has a specific requirement that the standard configuration will not meet simply inquire with the sales team. Adept MobileRobots has a wide variety of supported and tested accessories that can be integrated with the robotic platform for custom needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
