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.
