ROSKY2 Smart Mobile Platform
The ROSKY2 Smart Mobile Platform uses an NVIDIA Jetson Nano with a LiDAR sensor and a vision camera. Through the ROS 2 course, students learn core robot operating system concepts such as nodes, publish/subscribe, and services, and build mobile robot projects such as wall following.
| Grade level | College & University |

| Programming | Python / C++ / Jupyter / ROS 2 |
| Suitable for | Robotics summer course |
Features
The ROSKY Smart Mobile Platform was a selected teaching material for the 2020–2022 “Taoyuan ROS Summer School Robotics Summer Course.” It is a teaching kit well suited to ROS learners, and the ROSKY 2 is the version compatible with ROS Summer School.
- Jetson Nano 4 GB: faster processing and stronger performance
- YDLIDAR X4: scans to build maps, enabling navigation and obstacle avoidance
- IMX219-160 camera: enables visual recognition
- Aluminum alloy shell: improves the platform’s durability
- Mecanum wheels: give the chassis a complete motion-constraint model for control
