AEROFOX Z1 is an open-source wheel-legged robotic mobility platform designed for research, education, and OEM robotic development.
By combining driven wheels with articulated leg mechanisms, Z1 achieves a balance between high-speed wheeled motion and enhanced terrain adaptability, making it suitable for complex indoor and outdoor environments.
The platform is delivered as a robotic base system. Once equipped with a battery, the robot can be directly remote-controlled. Autonomous navigation, mapping, and perception functions require users to integrate their own onboard computer and sensors.
