Two new AgileX Hunter 2.0 robots are available in LAAS-CNRS, one of them being funded thanks to ANR. They are outdoor Ackerman front-wheel robots able to carry a payload of about 150 kg with a maximal linear velocity of about 6 km/h. They will be endowed with several exteroceptive and proprioceptive sensors such as laser range finders, cameras, an IMU, etc. The navigation will mainly rely on cameras. They are fully compatible with ROS. More details about the Hunter 2.0 robot can be found here.
Both robots will be equipped with the same materials and one of them will be sent to Brazil. In this way, the partners will benefit from two similar platforms, making easier the collaboration and the joint experimental tests.
