NiMH Battery Pack Charger PP45 ARES

The Studica Robotics 12V 30000mAh NiMH (nickel metal hydride) Battery Pack, PP45 - ARES in Black comes with a w/20 amp fuse. It is a 10-cell, 12-volt rechargeable battery pack.  

The Studica Robotics NiMH Battery Pack Charger, PP45, is required to charge the battery. 

The Studica VMX is a powerful robot controller,

• Enables Tele-op and autonomous control
• Programmable in Java, C++, Python, LabVIEW, and ROS
• Integrates the navX-IMU, a Linux based controller, Gigabit Ethernet, USB3 ports and built-in Wifi/Bluetooth. 
• Can be used an a Robot Control System or Vision/Motion processor
• Supports Open CV, Tensor Flow, SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping 
• Step Files

The Studica VMX leverages five recent key technology developments,

• Highly-integrated, inexpensive, WiFi-enabled, multi-core Linux computing platform with lots of USB IO for expansion
• 32-bit ARM Microcontrollers incorporating sophisticated I/O and digital communications engines
• Low-cost MEMs Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs)
• Powerful software providing rich libraries and tools for developing robot software in C++, Java
• CAN bus for high-speed, real-time communication between devices

The Studica VMX Technology Enables,

• Far richer development environments and tools
  • Because VMX is much more than a robot controller – it is a powerful, Linux-based   desktop computing platform with network/monitor/keyboard/mouse support.
• Very powerful software features
  • State-of-the-art software development GUIs (e.g., VS Code) libraries and tools (drive-  train kinematics, path-planning, vision processing, autonomous navigation,   performance data acquisition/playback)
• Access to cutting-edge sensors (for use outside the competition)
  • VMX’s multitude of modern digital communications interfaces and Linux-based   operating system allow users to directly access most modern devices (e.g., Intel   RealSense tracking and depth cameras and LIDAR

The Titan Quad Motor Controller is a powerful, 4-channel CAN-based motor controller with a built-in fuse-box (for DC motors up to 20A).

Features:

• 4 x Hardware encoder ports – one for each motor
• 2 limit switch ports for each motor
• Fuse box to set manual current limits
• 2x Power extension ports to power other 12VDC devices. I.E.
  • VMX Robotics Controller
  • Servo Power Module
• Built in LED Controller
• 6A power supply for LED’s
• i2c communication port to control LED Controller
• USB ports are updated to USB-C to better support todays cable standards

The Studica U Channel is 3mm thick and has a 48mm x 48mm profile. As with the other Studica Robotics building components, it has the common hole pattern which makes it easy to connect to other structure with very little or no additional machining required. You can easily connect to other channel, extrusions, bushings, bearing, mounting brackets and more so you can quickly assemble and disassemble robots and automated systems.
