Tutlebot3 Waffle Pi: an affordable and extensible ROS platform

The TurtleBot3 series by Robotis offers a range of open-source robotics platforms that are programmable on ROS , and highly powerful and performing despite their small size and low price. Il comprend en effet :

  • 1 chassis
  • 2 Dynamixel X-series servos (1 in each wheel)
  • 1 Open Source control board (OpenCR ARM Cortex-M7, programmable with the Arduino IDE)
  • 1 embedded PC (the Raspberry Pi 4 2G or 4GB)
  • Sensors for navigation (3-axis gyroscope, accelerometer and magnetometer)
  • LiDAR LDS-02
  • 1 battery

The set can be fully programmed using Open Source and includes software operating under an Apache 2.0 licence. The robot can also be fully operated with OpenCR, which means that you can 3D print its parts or order them off-the-shelf. The idea is to turn the TurtleBot3 into the ideal educational robot, accessible to all users and at all budgets.

There is another version of the Turtlebot3: the Turtlebot3 Burger , discover the differences between the 2 robots below:

A more powerful platform: Raspberry Pi 4 and Jetson Nano compatibility

The TurtleBot 3 Waffle can now take full advantage of the power of the Raspberry Pi 4, a single-board computer that is significantly more powerful than previous generations (improved CPU, RAM and graphics). This platform enables smoother image processing, much faster execution of machine learning algorithms, and parallel processing of the robot’s various sensors, directly enhancing its perception and navigation capabilities.

Thanks to optimised network interfaces and USB 3.0 ports, you can connect more compatible peripherals and fully exploit the potential of TurtleBot 3 for your research, teaching and prototyping projects.

The TurtleBot 3 hardware is also compatible with NVIDIA Jetson Nano (not included in the kit), paving the way for even more advanced embedded AI applications.

TurtleBot3: an educational robot to scale up

The advantage of the TurtleBot3 (Burger or Waffle version) is that it offers endless evolution opportunities. For instance, you can tap into the full range of Robotis sensors to make your robot even smarter and more interactive. TurtleBot3 already includes an inertial measurement unit featuring the Burger material required for navigational efficiency, and can be connected to various sensors (movement, temperature, colour, contact, and so on).

If you want to learn ROS, advanced robotics and computer science concepts, then Turtlebot3 is a great choice! ROS is a meta-operating system, something between an operating system and middleware. ROS is becoming increasingly popular with research labs, startups, but also large companies.

You can also transform its mechanical structure radically to turn it into a motorbike or a car, or add a trailer... Simply give free rein to your imagination!
