TurtleBot 2 Available For Preorder
What's new with Turtlebot 2.0?
Improved Performance
The new and improved Turtlebot includes a factory calibrated gyro with far better performance at low rotation speeds and encoders with 1000x better resolution. The result is a low-cost mobile robot with impressive position and velocity feedback to enhance your autonomy, navigation and mapping.
Power-ups!
The new Turtlebot has many new power features to improve user experience. We’ve included a 19V laptop power output to keep your laptop charged longer, we’ve added more user power connectors to power more sensors, and we’ve even added an extended life battery upgrade to maximize your uptime.
Coming Soon - A docking station is in the works to enable auto-charge and 24/7 autonomy!
Now Shipping Worldwide
One of the biggest limitations of the old Turtlebot was that it was not RoHS compliant, meaning that we were unable to ship to certain countries. We are very pleased to announce that the new TurtleBot is 100% RoHS compliant and ready to ship worldwide. Now Turtlebot’s only language barrier is a binary serial protocol.
Available at Clearpath Robotics for $1,149.00 and shipping December 1st.

A Robotic Wheelchair Able To Climb Steps
A demo of Chiba Institute of Technology's wheel chair concept:
"If a sensor detects a step, the robot calculates whether it can lift that leg. It can't raise its wheels right away, so the steering system at the rear makes preparatory motions to gain stability. When the wheels can be raised stably, the robot lifts its legs."
