Moose

Clearpath Moose

Heavy outdoor research robot. Because of the design, it can move even in very difficult terrain, such as mud, or overcome steep obstacles. Additionally, Moose is also amphibious – it can swim. Its open architecture and a wide range of sensors make it a perfect solution for many research projects. Robot’s high load capacity allows to equip it with a combustion generator, extending the working time. The manufacturer has adapted this platform to work with ROS and Gazebo, making it easy to simulate, program and control.
