How it works
Ridgeback and Dingo provide indoor bases for robotics research and mobile manipulation. Ridgeback’s omnidirectional drive carries larger payloads; Dingo offers a compact research platform. Arms, lift columns, perception and IndoorNav are configuration choices rather than standard industrial production-cell qualification.
Technical detail
Core features
- Ridgeback: vendor 100 kg maximum payload, 1.1 m/s, Mecanum drive and 18 mm obstacle clearance; rear lidar is required for 360-degree coverage
- Dingo: vendor 20 kg maximum payload, 1.3 m/s and 16 mm obstacle clearance; optional vision, Kinova manipulation and charging packages
- ROS 2 Jazzy, Gazebo and MoveIt integration; payload mounting, sensing and safety configuration must match the application
