Motiv Robotics Announces Enhanced RoboMantis® Robot

RoboMantis: Industry’s most dexterous work horse and academia’s most capable research tool!

 

“RoboMantis is an open architecture robot running ROS and today’s release of the robot with the Actin® addon exemplifies the flexible architecture of the system. We are truly excited to leverage this unique capability with our customers,” said Chris McQuin, Chief Engineer at Motiv Robotics. Approximately human scale, RoboMantis can be configured with up to four mobility limbs and two manipulators which can be outfitted with a wide variety of end-effectors. Payload capabilities of the robot enable unique heavy lift operations not found in existing mobile platforms.

 

Capability Impact-
The unique design of the modular RoboMantis robot allows for utilization in a wide number of applications from industrial inspection, mining, agriculture, defense, and academic research to name a few. RoboMantis has been released for iROS 2019 using Energid’s Actin® SDK as an addon to unlock even more advanced capability.

 

RoboMantis Availability-
Motiv is committed to continuously enhancing its robotic product line by increasing the value proposition to its customers and being responsive to their needs. “Part of having a robotic architecture that is modular and scalable is having options for customers that fit their specific needs. Enhancement options, such as the Actin addon for the RoboMantis, greatly expand our ability to meet our customers’ wide-ranging needs,” said Chris Thayer, CEO at Motiv Robotics. The RoboMantis robot is available now from Motiv Robotics.

 

Motiv Robotics, founded in 2015, offers a broad range of robotic solutions and services designed to tackle challenging applications.

Particularly small and cost-effective: Market launch of the uEye XLS cameras

Image processing opens up a wide range of possibilities for the automation of modern agriculture - but what to do when only a small budget is available? That is where the uEye XLS comes in. With the launch of these super-small industrial cameras, even price-sensitive applications and volume projects become feasible. Measuring just 29 x 29 x 7 mm, the compact cameras offer excellent imaging characteristics without excessive heat generation, making them a perfect fit for embedded vision applications in agricultural machinery and equipment. The industrial cameras comply with the vision standard and are available with Micro-B connectors and with or without C/CS or S-mount lens holders, further increasing their adaptability to different agricultural environments. Thanks to these features, the cameras offered by IDS Imaging Development Systems lower the barriers to entry and make it easier to explore the potential of vision technology to optimize agricultural processes.
