Discovery Q2 Four-wheeled omni-directional 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 Q2 is robot platform with four 45 degrees QMA -10 omni wheels manufactured by Chengdu Hangfa Robotics Co.,Ltd. Compared with the traditional gear train, the QMA -10 omni wheel is able to accomplish many special movements, like translation, rotation, and simultaneous translation & rotation. Discovery Q2 uses four 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 Q2.
