Robot de Surveillance à Chenilles

This is a complete robot kit including the LT Robot, a custom pelican control case with 7" color LCD, IR camera, and battery charging station. This is the same robot as the LT-F, less the rear flipper/stabilizer arms.  The robot is light weight, very maneuverable, and goes over most obstacles. The LT is capable of ascending and descending most household stairs.  With the included Lithium Ion batteries, the robot will run 8 or more hours. 

LT Robot Specifications:

• Enclosed treaded robot chassis with new integrated flush camera tilt system in the nose of the robot.

• One 22.2VDC 10Ahr Li-Ion drive battery. Run time ~2.5 to 8  hours depending on use
• 11.1VDC 5Ahr Li-Ion video power battery.  Run time 7-10 hours
• Custom Dual 25Amp drive dual motor controller specifically designed for this robot
• Fuse blocks, terminal blocks, charging ports, switch, etc. all integrated into the design
• Integrated nylon carrying strap on the rear or the robot
• Chassis made from heavy gage aluminum that is laser cut and CNC bent.  Chassis seams are welded.  Entire body is coated flat black.

• 7” composite rubber and UHMW cogged wheels that match a positive traction aggressive all terrain tread
• Ground clearance: ~2 inches
• Speed: 0 to 5 feet per second, infinitely adjustable/controllable

Video and Control Custom Features:

Below are two video and control packages.  We also offer many other custom control choices.  Video transmission and robot control is tricky and can be affected by several factors such as walls, electrical interference, landscape, other RF interference, etc.   We offer many different methods for video transmission.  The range (distance) you can achieve is greatly influenced by the above.  Our standard package is a Pelican Case controller.  If desired a handheld remote can be selected too.

 RC Controller: Standard versions include the following:

• 5 Channel 2.4GHz frequency spectrum control system (searches for best most reliable channel) with a Fail Safe long range dual receiver.  Three channels are used to drive the robot and control the camera.  Two channels are left over for turning on other accessories.
• Tested urban range 200+ yards (effective operation range for video and control with multiple building structures, wireless interference, etc.  Concrete and steel walls will reduce range further)
• Tested rural line of site range 1000+ feet
• 7” color wide screen LCD for viewing video
• Full range of speed control for drive motors.
• Position control of camera pan and tilt
• Extra channel for lights or other custom options
• System can be upgraded to 6 or 7 channel for additional accessories
• Handheld System (default option):
  • Spektrum remote with custom water jet cut mounting bracket for holding battery, 7” LCD and video receiver
  • Light weight and portable
  • Fully assembled and tested
• Pelican Case System (as shown in main picture):
  • Pelican case with 7”LCD mounted in the lid and controls mounted in base. 
  • Light weight can be carried and operated or placed on hood of car or table and operated
  • Convenient transport case doubles as operator console, just flip it open, erect antennas, and turn it on

Video Transmission:

• Video is sent back with a 900MHz transmitter.  The receiver is mounted to the RC controller or in the Pelican case and the video is transmitted to the 7” color LCD. 
• Tested urban range 200+ yards (effective operation range for video and control with multiple building structures, wireless interference, etc.  Concrete and steel walls will reduce range further)
• Tested rural line of site range 1000+ feet

Integrated Tilt Camera: 

• Integrated low profile 120 degree tilt system embedded in the nose of the robot with color camera and 10 LED total darkness night vision.  Camera can be used for looking straight up while driving under cars, etc.  or looking down when nose is lifted to see forward.

Smart Chargers:

• Multiple chargers mounted in single carrying case.  The chargers are for the 24V motor batteries, 12V video/control battery, and 12V control console battery. 
• The chargers are fully automatic and will charge all the batteries simultaneously.
