Build Your Own Delivery Robot

Welcome, please feel free to browse or follow along the reading order as outlined below.

Introduction

The main function of our robot is routine inspection and delivering small goods using simple routes.
As there is no driver on board the vehicle it can be smaller, cheaper and consume less energy. Without a driver on board there is a need for remote supervision by an operator or traffic controller.

The robot has two modes to give an operator and/or traffic controller supervision over the vehicle and to save time:

1. Teleoperation - via internet on a browser
2. An autopilot with remote supervision and to train the autopilot, to drive more complex routes

The robot is built with publicly available parts exclusively and can be assembled by anyone.

Get Started

• Get a robot. Use the part list found under Assemble kit, the Assembly schemes and Assembly documentation or place an Order if you prefer pre-assembly.

• Read about startup and maintenance.
• Connect as your robot's operator via the Controller and Browser. Learn to use the controller and take the first spin.
• Use and train the autoplilot of your robot with according Training autopilot.
