About Husky

The Husky A200 Unmanned Ground Vehicle is designed for industrial and military engineers, computer scientists and researchers who spend too much time and money developing UGV prototypes.

Rugged

Designed for use in the great outdoors, the high-torque 4x4 differential drive system is built to tackle almost any field environments. The Husky is designed to withstand the wear and tear of harsh testing environments and can handle dirt, mud, water, gravel, rocks and snow.

Easy-To-Use

The Husky is built on an open low-level serial communication protocol and is compatible with LabVIEW, ROS, Player/Stage, C++, and Python. It offers out-of-the-box tele-operation functionality and has a growing list of sample robotics applications to get you started quickly.

Affordable

The Husky has been carefully engineered to maximize performance while also reducing your total development costs. If you are working within a tight R&D budget or you’d simply like to improve your margins, contact us to learn how Husky saves you time and money.

Incredibly Customizable

Payload Mounting - An industry standard slotted aluminium extrusion frame allows for rapid and reconfigurable payload mounting. Use extra extrusion to create the custom mechanical structure you need to get the job done quickly.

Payload Interfacing - An easily accessible and colour-coded payload interface provides 5V, 12V and 24V user power. We’ve filtered and fused the power lines to ensure safe and reliable operation of your payloads.

Payload Compartment - All your sensitive hardware can be safely mounted in a convenient internal bay.

Unlimited Potential

Mobile Manipulation - Add your favorite industrial manipulator to create a powerful robot for mobile manipulation tasks.

Navigation and Localization - Interfacing GPS, LIDAR and/or Vision has never been easier for robotics. Provided sample code can get you up and running with advanced perception capabilities in an afternoon.

Tele-Operation - Combine mobile manipulation and advanced perception systems to create one of the most capable tele-manipulation platforms on the market today.
