An eco-friendly robot made in France

The Vitirover Academic allows students and researchers to operate a robot designed for complex outdoor environments. It benefits from exceptional energy management thanks to its solar panels and a uniquely designed, patented movement system. It features a standby mode, allowing the robot to operate for extended periods using only solar energy.

The Vitirover robot includes a rear opening for routing cables and adding sensors such as a LiDAR or a camera.

Another advantage is that the robot is equipped with four-wheel drive (PID or PWM), making it extremely agile on all types of terrain. It can overcome obstacles like bumps while keeping all four wheels on the ground.

Control options

  • Web Interface: Intuitively control the robot via Vitirover's web platform
  • Remote Scripts: Use a Scratch-like interface to program and execute scripts remotely.
  • Advanced Mode: For tech enthusiasts, dive into coding with Python or ROS

What's included

  • Vititrover Robot (academic version)
  • Charger
  • Power board for adding your own electronics, sensors, or motors
  • Nvidia Jetson Nano board: to run the robot directly with your code. You can also use any other board (Raspberry, etc.)

API functionalities

In addition to ROS, you will have the option to use Google's Protobuf for encoding and decoding standardized multilingual communication protocols.

Data Frames:

  • Telemetry data: broadcast by the robot at 10 Hz, includes GPS, rear axle angle, motor status, etc.
  • Control commands: send direct instructions for individual motor control.

A robot for Higher Education and Research

The VITIROVER offers a user-friendly experience, making it a captivating educational tool. It allows users to learn and practice programming languages such as C, C++, Python, or even Scratch.

The robot integrates various navigation strategies that can be tested, improved, and enhanced by AI using movement data.

Additionally, the robot comes with basic content that students can explore and develop:

  • Basic code already uploaded, quick to launch and modify, to move the robot in demo mode
  • A Vitirover interface that allows direct and easy coding via a PC/Screen
  • Access to Viticloud (web platform for robot behavior control and indicators)

The university version is compatible with Noetic, ROS 1, and Gazebo

Viti-Cloud web dashboard

The web platform Viti-Cloud provides a convenient interface for monitoring, maintaining, administering, and even controlling robots remotely.

The platform offers real-time technical data, including battery status, motor energy consumption, mowing efficiency, coverage rate of defined areas, and much more. It also generates detailed reports based on the collected data.

With a remote control function and live streaming of images captured by the robots' onboard cameras, it's possible to intervene remotely if necessary.

The programming tool Scratch is integrated into the platform with pre-established scenarios to simplify robot programming.
