[Research and Development Transport Robot / AGV] Equipped with two drive wheels mounted at the front and rear center of the body, capable of pivoting in place around the center of the body.
This is a derivative model of the already released "Megalover Ver.3.0," equipped with a battery that has approximately five times the capacity compared to previous models. Additionally, by placing two drive wheels at the front and rear center of the body, it enables pivot turns around the center of the body. This product balances stable operational performance provided by the large-capacity battery with a body structure that allows for stable and reliable turning even when carrying many devices, making it suitable for serious demonstration experiments aimed at practical application and research and development purposes that require long operational times. 【Features】 ■ Drive wheels are positioned at the center of the body, enabling zero-radius turning ■ Equipped with a large-capacity Li-Fe battery, extending operating time ■ Control via wired/wireless connection is possible ■ Programmable with Arduino IDE ■ Features an easily expandable aluminum frame ■ Standard equipped with an emergency stop switch ■ Compatible with control via ROS (ROS 1, ROS 2) ■ Supports a variety of optional accessories

Detailed information

The Megarover S40A-LB features two drive wheels positioned centrally in relation to the front and rear of the vehicle body. This structure allows for rotation on the spot around the center of the vehicle body (in the standard model, the Megarover Ver. 3.0, the drive wheels are not positioned at the center in the front-rear direction, so the axis for rotation on the spot is not at the center of the vehicle body). This design enables more stable operation when the entire robot body becomes larger, such as when carrying numerous devices. Additionally, like the Megarover Ver. 3.0, the drive wheels are standard wheels, allowing for stable and quiet operation. Equipped with a 1440Wh (24V 60Ah) Li-Fe battery, the battery capacity has been expanded to about five times that of the basic model, the Megarover Ver. 3.0, which has 288Wh. The Megarover S40A-LB can achieve even longer operating times for applications that require the installation of many expansion devices.

The Megalover S40A-LB supports wireless communication via Wi-Fi and wired USB serial communication. By using specified commands, it can be controlled from various devices such as PCs and tablets. Additionally, the wireless controller for robots, "VS-C3," is included as standard, allowing the main unit to be operated wirelessly without connecting to a PC. The analog stick can be used to move forward and backward, as well as to rotate, making it usable for manual operation for functionality checks and as a means of operation in emergencies.
-
The control board "VS-WRC058c" included in this product is equipped with the ESP32-WROOM-32 microcontroller, allowing users to create control programs using the Arduino IDE. Sample code will be provided with the product in the form of an Arduino library, enabling users to customize the firmware on their own. *Note: When programming the VS-WRC058 using the Arduino IDE, an environment with Arduino IDE version 1.8.13 or higher is required.*
-
This product is equipped with a standard "emergency stop switch." Additionally, the installation position of the emergency stop switch can be freely changed as long as there are no issues with wiring length or interference with other devices. It is assumed that users will replace and use it according to the actual operational conditions and the installation status of any additional expansion devices.
-
The Megarover S40A-LB supports ROS 1 and ROS 2 message communication, allowing for ROS message communication using rosserial or micro-ROS by connecting to devices running ROS via Wi-Fi or USB cable. The sample firmware enables sending movement speed commands to the mecanum rover using geometry_msgs/Twist or geometry_msgs/msg/Twist types, as well as retrieving the current speed and battery voltage from the mecanum rover. Additionally, by modifying the firmware, users can send and receive any arbitrary messages beyond those mentioned above. Please note that you will need to prepare a separate device to run ROS. The recommended operating environment for the devices we suggest is as follows (additional setup for libraries not included with this product may be required).
