Tracked robots with a Jetson Orin-series module for a muddy agricultural plot

Asked as: “For a muddy agricultural test plot, which tracked robots run a Jetson Orin-series module?”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

I found two tracked robots that run a Jetson Orin-series module. Neither is an agricultural robot: both are filed as Educational & Research Robot Kits, and I couldn't find an IP rating or any other mud or water protection listed for either one.

What I couldn't confirm

  • Zauberzeug Field Friend Dev Kit: the only tracked robot I found that's built for agriculture. It's a tracked, ROS2-based agricultural research platform, but it's listed only with "NVIDIA Jetson (Zauberzeug Robot Brain)". I couldn't confirm that it uses an Orin-series module, so it's not on the list above. zauberzeug... +1zauberzeug.com ↗“tracked, ROS2-based agricultural robotics research platform”zauberzeug.com ↗“NVIDIA Jetson (Zauberzeug Robot Brain)”
  • Muddy-field suitability: for both Orin robots above, ingress protection and operating temperature aren't listed, so I can't confirm either one is suited to a muddy test plot.

If tracks aren't essential, Husarion Panther and Husarion Lynx are rugged IP54/IP66 outdoor robots that can take a Jetson Orin NX (16 GB). They run on wheels, though, not tracks. husarion.com +3husarion.com ↗“Rugged IP54/IP66 outdoor UGV”husarion.com ↗“robot.locomotion=Wheeled (4 x BLDC)”husarion.com ↗“Compact IP54/IP66 indoor/outdoor UGV”husarion.com ↗“robot.locomotion=Wheeled (2 x BLDC)”
