Mecabot Plus

Mecabot Plus is an ideal Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) platform for indoor service robot applications.

Mecabot Plus is equipped with builtin ROS Controller, LiDAR, Depth Camera, STM32 Motor/Power/IMU and metal chassis with 4 Mecanum wheels and Independent Suspension Systems.

Mecabot Plus saves time and money for rapid prototyping or product development for indoor service robot projects. This is a serious professional AMR platform to be integrated into service robots especially for indoor environment such as factories, warehouses, hospitals, public transports, office buildings, hotels and restaurants.

It can travel up to 1.39 km/h. Its mecanum wheels can allow Mecabot Plus travel in omnidirectional directions. Mecabot Plus can navigate in smaller indoor environment with greater flexibility. The max payload is 60 kg.

Mecabot Plus comes with revolutionary Power Management Units including Power Mag and Super Charge. Power Mag is a magnetic LFP battery allows quick and easy battery swaps. Mecabot Plus S takes it further, integrating Super Charge, the automatic charging solution.

Both Mecabot Plus and Mecabot Plus S come pre-loaded with MiROS, a cloud-based ROS DevKit with a user-friendly graphical interface. They also include free tutorials, supported by a global ROS community.

Mecabot Plus is one of the most agile AMR platforms that can carry out big jobs at low cost.

What is MiROS

MiROS is a cloud-based programming tool for ROS with graphical user interface. Rosbot 2 comes preinstalled with the MiROS Agent, enabling a constant SSH connection between your computer and your robot. If you’re developing a ROS project on a Mac or PC, there’s no need to install Ubuntu or use a virtual machine. You can access the ROS environment directly through a web browser and remotely connect to your robot. The MiROS graphical interface supports drag-and-drop programming and automatically generates ROS code, saving time and reducing the risk of errors.

What is Power Mag

Power Mag is a magnetic battery that easily attaches to Mecabot's metal surface, enabling quick battery swaps. Its core is powered by LFP (lithium iron phosphate) technology, which is ideal for EVs, solar energy storage, and mobile robots. LFP batteries are safer, charge faster, offer better heat resistance, and have a longer lifespan. They are also more environmentally friendly and cost-effective compared to other battery types.

What is Super Charge

Super Charge is an automatic charging solution for Rosbots, Mecabots, and Pickerbots. The Mecabot Pro 2S models are bundled with the Super Charge auto charging station. Super Charge can also be purchased separately and easily deployed to pair with any compatible Rosbot, Mecabot, or Pickerbot.
