"Research and development transport robot/AGV" - a large transport robot that realizes a load capacity of 120 kg.
The Megarover F120 is a large transport robot that significantly enhances the payload capacity to approximately 120 kg, based on the popular two-wheel drive transport robot "Megarover Ver2.1," which is currently on sale. With sufficient payload capacity and the stability and ease of handling provided by two-wheel control, it can be utilized for research and development in various applications. The Megarover F120 follows the basic structure of the well-established Megarover series while greatly enhancing the body structure and motor output. Features such as compatibility with Arduino IDE and ROS have been carried over directly from Megarover Ver2.1, allowing for diverse operations without being limited by the type of application. Additionally, it is well-suited for projects developed based on the Megarover that aim to significantly enhance the payload capacity of transport robots. 【Features】 ■ Achieves a payload capacity of approximately 120 kg ■ Large transport robot with two-wheel drive ■ Control via wired/wireless connection ■ Control through ROS message communication ■ Programmable with Arduino IDE ■ Easy operation with a dedicated wireless controller *For more details, please feel free to contact us.

The Megarover F120 achieves the highest payload capacity in its series by equipping large wheels and motors. To realize a large chassis, we have reviewed the vehicle structure and battery, aiming for the same level of availability as before. *This product is not designed for passenger use. Additionally, due to its large size, please exercise sufficient caution during development and operation. The Megarover F120 features a two-wheel drive structure with rear casters added. Since it is controlled like a regular vehicle, its movements such as forward and backward motion and left and right turns are easily understood by those around it, providing advantages in terms of durability and quietness. Despite being an ultra-large vehicle, it has a maximum speed of 1.2 m/s in actual measurements, making it suitable for various research and development applications. It is also characterized by its stability in practical operations compared to transport robots with omnidirectional movement mechanisms, as it is less prone to wheel slip.

The Megarover F120 supports ROS message communication. By connecting to a device running ROS via Wi-Fi or a USB cable, control using ROS becomes possible. By utilizing ROS message communication, command values for speed and turning can be sent to the Megarover F120 with just a few lines of code, allowing for a wide range of applications as a ROS robot. Since it comes with an introductory document and the following sample programs, even beginners can create and easily operate control systems in a ROS environment. Advanced control using sensors such as LRF can be implemented with minimal development burden. 【List of ROS Sample Programs】 - Control from a gamepad - SLAM (gmapping) - Navigation - Control from a mouse (touchpad) - SLAM (cartographer) *Additional setup of libraries not included with this product may be required. *An LRF is necessary for performing SLAM and navigation. The LRF option is convenient to use.
