SpyderBot©
An experimental robotics platform combining computer vision, path planning and modular hardware.
Overview
SpyderBot is a modular robotics platform designed for rapid prototyping of autonomy features. It integrates a lightweight vision stack, a motion controller, and modular sensor payloads.
Highlights
- Modular hardware mounts for cameras & LIDAR
- Open-source vision stack (edge-optimized)
- ROS-compatible messaging bridge
- Power management and safe-shutdown routines

Architecture & Notes
The platform emphasizes low-latency perception on constrained hardware. The firmware is split into hardware abstraction, a real-time motion controller, and a communications bridge for higher-level planners. For experimentation we provide Dockerized simulation images and example datasets.
