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.

How to overcome GNSS limitations with RTK correction services

How to overcome GNSS limitations with RTK correction services

Although GNSS offers ubiquitous coverage worldwide, its accuracy can be hindered in some situations - signals can be attenuated by heavy vegetation, for example, or obstructed by tall buildings in dense urban canyons. This results in signals being received indirectly or via the multipath effect, leading to inaccuracy, or even blocked entirely. Unimpeded GNSS positioning in all real world scenarios is therefore unrealistic - creating a need for supporting technologies, such as real time kinematic (RTK) positioning and dead reckoning, to enable centimeter-accuracy for newer mass-market IoT devices.
