Questions & Answers
Have a Question?
-
Once I buy the item, do i receive access to the source code as I want to use it to program my own code with ROS2/ extend the functionality with ROS2 in Python?
Hi there, Yes! Souce code and system image will be provided with order :D
-
I understand that the robots are disassembled when you buy them, but are these robots already configured and ready to work when you buy them or do I need to configure each peripheral and install the drivers and operating systems?
The robot will be ready to use once you complete the assembly and wiring.
