Introduction
Scorpion is a LiDAR-powered autonomous multiutility robot. The bot is driven by 2 DC motors through a bevel gear transmission case. An Nvidia Jetson Nano Devkit is the brains of this machine, and the driving ECU is an Arduino Nano communicating with the Jetson Nano through PyFirmata. It’s a 3×2 drive system boasting good off-road capability for its size.
