Navigator L1 Crawler Platform
Product Briefing
The Navigator series is the representative product of high performance and high reliability. Adopting industrial product design concept, it is designed to provide users with a complete, user-friendly robot system with high performance, high reliability, multiple interface, strict protection grade and long-term continuous work capacity. The Navigator L1 is the robot platform with caterpillar wheel system, which can adapt to all kinds of muddy, ravines, ladder working environment and complete all kinds of work efficiently. The chassis of this platform adopts overall aluminum casting & molding process.Navigator L1 uses two high-power coreless motors as the driver, equipped with independent servo driver and the advanced motion controller, which integrates various motion control function, making both CAN bus and RS232 interface available. 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 Navigator L1.
