Built for Real-World Challenges 
Engineered for reliable operation across diverse environments, Leo Rover features a robust aluminum frame providing structural integrity, paired with a durable, precision 3D-printed casing protecting the sensitive electronics. Achieving an IP55 rating, the rover is well-defended against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction. This ensures resilience during demanding fieldwork and provides confidence when operating in challenging weather conditions or particle-heavy indoor settings.
Mobility over uneven terrain is significantly enhanced by its rocker suspension system, inspired by NASA’s proven rover designs, which works dynamically to maximize wheel contact and maintain stability on rough surfaces. This advanced suspension operates in concert with the dependable 4×4 drivetrain, delivering substantial torque to confidently traverse obstacles and surfaces ranging from grass, gravel, and rocky patches outdoors to various floorings indoors. Count on Leo Rover as a sturdy, adaptable platform built to endure the rigors of real-world robotics.
Open Source Core & ROS-Native Foundation
Embrace true development freedom with Leo Rover’s open-source core, fundamentally liberating you from vendor lock-in. Full access to software, firmware, and hardware design files empowers you to customize, modify, repair, or enhance your robot without restriction. Leo Rover is built ground-up for the Robot Operating System (ROS), offering robust, native support for both the widely-adopted ROS 1 (Noetic) and the latest ROS 2 distributions. This seamless integration unlocks ROS’s vast ecosystem of packages and development tools, drastically simplifying complex tasks like navigation, perception, and autonomy implementation.
