NXP’s new buggy is a high-tech platform for mobile robotics built on top of a WLToys 12409 chassis. The buggy is highly configurable due to its stacked mounting plate design. The rover will include necessary components such as a motor, ESC, servo, flight controller and GPS. Additional components from the NXP Mobile Robotics suite include the NavQ+ companion computer, T1 Ethernet switch and UCANS32K146 UAVCAN node boards.

Using the NXP Mobile Robotics suite, NXP Cup contestants will be able to develop more advanced algorithms for their Cup cars. The NXP FMUK66 runs PX4 Autopilot, an advanced autopilot software for drones, airplanes, rovers and more. With PX4, contestants will be able to harness the complete suite of modules within PX4, allowing for finer control of their Cup car. In addition, the NXP Cup will be able to expand its challenges further to include more advanced technologies like machine learning using the NavQ+’s integrated AI coprocessor.
The buggy will be available on this page in November. Stay tuned.

NXP CUP participants will get a special discount. Information will be shared after registration by the event committee.
