Bunker Pro Tracked Mobile Robot (UGV)

A mobile robot with impressive features

This robot is about 1 metre long and 85 cm wide, and can carry up to 120 kg of material! Researchers, engineers and designers therefore benefit from an ideal mobile platform for developing the robotics applications of their choice, in a wide range of environments.

Some key parameters to better understand the Bunker Pro’s extraordinary capabilities:

• An extremely powerful torque for overcoming obstacles without faltering
• 3 hours’ autonomy thanks to a 60 Ah lithium battery
• A steering angle of 0, which means it can turn on one axis in the tightest of spaces
• A dual communication interface (CAN and RS233) offering multiple connection possibilities: IMU, sensors, video camera, etc.
• Controllable from up to 100 metres away (in an unobstructed environment)
• An open-source programming environment (ROS, SDK, etc.)

This tracked robot also has an IP rating of 67, which is the highest level of protection against dust and debris, and a high level of water resistance. Temporary immersion to a depth of 1 metre is therefore possible.

Many uses in hostile environments

the Bunker Pro mobile robot is designed for exploration, surveillance and transport operations in the most difficult terrain. Created to go where most UGVs won’t, it can climb a staircase or slope of up to 30°, cross muddy ground and puddles, navigate both indoors and out, under concrete culverts, in wasteland, etc.

Its robust constitution makes it the ideal choice for all kinds of missions:

• surveillance and video recordings
• transport of equipment
• building inspections
• demining operations, etc.
