Don't wait to contact us to know more about the platform, to talk about your project.
Jackal is built on a sturdy metal chassis made entirely from lightweight and durable aluminium alloy. The high torque 4x4 drivetrain gives Jackal maximum traction, while up to 500 watts of on-board power are available to manoeuvre out of the toughest situations. Tested under the most difficult conditions, it’s as robust as it is powerful, capable of carrying loads of up to 20 kg for autonomy of 2 h in extreme load conditions (8 h in standard conditions).
Leave the umbrella at home – Jackal’s IP62 waterproof casing enables all connections to pass through a compressed-foam cable management outlet for communicating with outside components. Operate Jackal at -20 Celsius or +45 Celsius - it’s ready for all weather conditions!
Jackal is engineered for repetitive and rugged testing, so it’s made with replaceable metal skirting to protect the platform from damage. The 4 durable wheels paired with skid-steer drive enable precision and just enough power to bring your research to the next level.
The Jackal mobile robot is not only a fun-to-drive vehicle, it’s also a fantastic robotics platform created to help you with your programming experiments thanks to a wide range of 5, 12 and 24 V compatible sensors.
Jackal programming is done using its ROS API , designed to make all its users’ lives easier: Using ROS, you'll be able to control the power systems, the motors, IMU, GPS and localization estimate. If you need new connections or want to make changes to the on-board computer, just lift the vehicle’s top plate to access all the internal circuits!
