Ranger Mini 3.0 + ROS 2 R&D Kit: the ready-to-use platform

Kick off your autonomous navigation, SLAM, and perception projects with no assembly phase. This bundle brings together the AgileX mobile base Ranger Mini 3.0 and the ROS 2 R&D Kit designed by our GR Lab (Engineering design office at Génération Robots).

Upon delivery, plug in, power on… and code. Mechanical and electrical integration is done, the Ubuntu + ROS 2 environment is pre-installed, sensors are recognized, and remote access via VNC is operational to supervise the platform in just a few clicks.

Why choose this pack?

  • Save weeks of mechanical/electrical integration and software setup.
  • Reduce the risk of hardware and software incompatibilities.
  • Start immediately with ROS experiments (navigation, SLAM, perception).
  • Single point of contact for integration and support (GR Lab).

What you get

1) Mobile base: AgileX Ranger Mini 3.0

The Ranger Mini 3.0 is a compact, robust, omnidirectional UGV designed for both indoor and outdoor use. Its all-metal chassis (IP54) handles real-world conditions, while advanced mobility enables precise maneuvers, up to a zero turning radius to spin in place.

  • Chassis: all-metal body, rugged industrial design
  • Drive: 4 steering motors (100 W) + 4 speed controllers (350 W)
  • IP54: dust- and splash-resistant
  • 4 driving modes: Spin, Traverse, Diagonal, Double Ackermann
  • Agility & performance:
  • 105 mm ground clearance to clear obstacles
  • 15° gradeability (with load)
  • 75 kg payload
  • 7–8 h runtime (removable 48V24Ah battery)
  • Up to 35 km after one hour of charging

2) ROS 2 R&D Kit (GR Lab integration)

The ROS 2 R&D Kit eliminates weeks of integration. GR Lab engineers mount the sensors, wire and configure the system, then install the OS (Linux Ubuntu), ROS 2 and the component packages.

  • Mechanical: component integration on the mobile base
  • Electrical: wiring and interconnection of all equipment
  • Software: installation and configuration of ROS 2 packages for the components
  • Remote access: VNC deployment (remote monitoring/control of the onboard computer via a dedicated page)
  • OS: Linux Ubuntu installation + ROS 2 development environment

Delivered turnkey: upon receipt, plug in, power on and code. No need to build the software infrastructure beforehand.

Project Zephyr: a mobile manipulator platform for ETH Zurich

For this project, ETH Zurich entrusted GR Lab with the development of Zephyr, an autonomous mobile base equipped with a robotic arm carrying a smartphone.

The goal is to automatically measure signal quality in indoor and outdoor environments while accurately recording the smartphone’s position. Zephyr is based on a Ranger Mini 3.0 platform with SLAM, autonomous navigation, obstacle avoidance, a graphical interface for mission planning and an HTTP API for integration with ETH Zurich’s research tools.

More broadly, we offer the PiPER robotic arm from AgileX Robotics as an option on our ROS 2 R&D bundles based on AgileX mobile platforms. This configuration combines mobile navigation and manipulation and enables rapid prototyping of complete mobile-manipulator robotics scenarios: object picking, interaction with the environment, advanced algorithm testing or automated measurement campaigns such as those carried out with Zephyr for ETH Zurich.

Who is it for?

Universities, laboratories, R&D centers, and innovation teams looking to prototype fast and validate better: autonomous navigation, SLAM, perception/sensor fusion, inspection & security on industrial or logistics sites, demonstrators, and mobile robotics education.
