Add-Ons

Lidar module: If you want to explore ROS SLAM, Navigation functions based on Lidar, you also need a Lidar module. We can ONLY ensure the Lidar module can work well based on our source code, and NOT ensure that you get from other channels. We fixed some software problems based on our source code, and if you like, we can also share with you our ROS2 driver for this Lidar. Definitely, we will supply a user guide to let you use it easily. We already tested some Lidar modules, such as PRLidar A1, YDLidar X2L, and LD06. For Mini Pupper, we refer to LD06 as it is smaller. LD06 Lidar module price is the same as their campaign price, but we will ship one additional Mini Pupper servo as a gift. 

 

SLAM-MiniPupper supports SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping), it can map its environment and learn in real-time from things around using Lidar or a camera sensor. 

Navigation-With the map, Mini Pupper can answer "where am I? Where am I going?" you can call it self-driving technology.   

 

 

 

Camera module: For potential security issues, the camera module is not included in our default package. If you want to explore camera AI functions, you can choose a normal USB camera module or a Pi camera v2. 


 

 

 


Set up environment

Set up your study environment easily based on our online video guide.

Assembly

The kit is the result of two years of continuous refinement, delivering a quick and engaging building experience. Get your hands on a robot in minutes and unleash your creativity!

Robotics control

We prepared a simple forward kinematics sample code based on Mini Pupper, you can try it here. You can run it on your Windows or Ubuntu with the Python environment, just like the following picture shows.

 

ROS

You can use ROS2 for running simulations, SLAM, navigation functions, and other technologies similar to those used in self-driving systems.

OpenCV

Command your robot with the power of your hand! The machine learning technology lets you control your robot intuitively using natural hand gestures.

 

Specification 

There are 2 Mini Pupper versions, Mini Pupper 1 and Mini Pupper 2. Which version is better for you? In general, it's easier for beginners to select Mini Pupper 1, and if you have enough time and want to explore more possibilities you can select Mini Pupper 2.
