Discovery C1 Two-Wheeled Differential Platform
Product Briefing
The Discovery series is a small economical robot platform. It aims to provide users with a complete mobile robot system with high reliability and multiple interfaces. Discovery C1 is robot platform with two HSL-10 inflatable rubber driving wheels manufactured by Chengdu Hangfa Robotics Co.,Ltdand two QL-08 omni wheels with coaxial tilting suspension, which can adapt to all kinds of working environment and complete all kinds of sports efficiently.Discovery C1 uses two high-power coreless motors as the driver, equipped with multi-axis servo driver, supporting both CAN bus and RS232 interface. The development kit provides customers with a complete equipment communication protocol, and also provides examples and demo application source code based on STM32F407, which allows users quickly know how to operate Discovery C1.
