Frequently asked questions about Diablo
What is the Diablo robot?
Diablo is a two-wheeled self-balancing robot with articulated legs. It can maintain balance while moving and change its height and posture for different mobility and development tasks.
Can Diablo be used for robotics research?
Yes. Its open SDK and expandable interfaces support experiments in balance control, locomotion, sensor integration, inspection, mapping, and delivery-robot prototyping.
Diablo provides an open SDK
It can also be installed with other hardware modules by users, including installing Lidar, Anti-collision module, GPS, etc.
