The Ridgeback – known for its omnidirectional mobility and high payload capacity – is already a highly adaptable solution for dynamic, confined indoor environments. When paired with the Ewellix lifting column and the Kuka LBR iiwa manipulator arm, the robot’s capabilities are taken to a new level. A custom 45° tilt of the Kuka arm […] The post Mobile Manipulation with KUKA LBR IIWA Arm appeared first on Clearpath Robotics.| Clearpath Robotics
Mobile manipulator robots are becoming increasingly prevalent as sensors, robotic arms, and mobile platforms become more accessible. These robots usually consist of a mobile base, like the Ridgeback omnidirectional platform, paired with one or two robotic arms and a sensor suite to support a specific application. Ultimately, these human-like robots are helping advance fields like […] The post Raising the Bar: Adding Height and Versatility to Mobile Manipulator Robots appeared first on Clear...| Clearpath Robotics
