Hiwonder JetHexa ROS Hexapod Robot Kit Powered by Jetson Nano with Lidar Depth Camera/ ROS Robot

#robot #ros #slam #Hiwonder
JetHexa is a hexapod robot that acts like a real hexapod animal, but can fulfil various AI functions, such as mapping and navigation, tracking and obstacle avoidance, custom prowling and human feature recognition. It is a nice platform for you to program in Python/ C/ C++/ JavaScript to explore and enjoy the robotic world.

Looks great! Your robots have come a long way!

It would be nice if I had one of these to navigate and map caves, but I feel like the lidar would have to mount vertical for that instead of horizontal.

Would have spent a few happy summers doing the tutorials on this thing as a kid.

Neuroshima's Moloch - that's what I see;-)
But indeed, impressive. Keep up the good work.

Problem/Concern: Inverse kinematics look off.

What access do users have to make adjustments to this pre-compiled issue?

[RLMemeLord]

How easy is it to get replacement parts i.e. battery? 60min life time is only archiveable in idle? Have you considerd wirelss charging + base? Thank you!

If tools like this are for public, dont even try imagine what military can hide from us 😁

[ravibhushan]

Is it open source? Can I install a new Jetpack OS on it? Can I replace Nano with Xavier NX?

[dgb]

I need to do now is rotten nice GUI to go with it

Hey buddy!!!
1) Where can I learn these stuffs??
2) Do you have any tutorial or recommendation or
3) Does NVIDIA jetson team provides bootcamp Or summer internships or Courses for building IOT products??

Why cant we make robots that move smoothly like spiders ?

Are the actuators the problem ?

I'm glad im old enough to think to myself "As amazing as this is, as cool as it would be to own". And shut that thought straight out the window and say to myself "I know id buy this, have 5 mins of fun and then find nothing more to map with this amazing Lidar camera, that it would a pointless buy".

And for that reason. Im not spending 1.1k on it.

[Avadon]

I'll stick with tracks.. this gives me the willies lol

[Amrafel]

It's just a shame that you can't program it in Python
