Compact tracked robot chassis
Reference figures from Anvol's engineers for a similar build: development $5,000, unit cost about $600 per unit at 10 units, development time about 1 month. A low, compact tracked base with a metal frame, rubber tracks and an open top bay that holds the battery, motor drivers and controller. It is meant as the starting point for a custom robot: add a camera, sensors or a small arm on top. In the video it accelerates, spins in place and changes direction on a concrete workshop floor.
