| Content Summary | ATRV-mini was a popular, 2000’s commercially available, outdoors robot. The successful upgrade procedure of a decommissioned ATRV-mini is presented in this paper. Its robust chassis construction, skid steering ability, and optional wifi connectivity were the major reasons for its commercial success, mainly for educational and research purposes. However the advances in electronics, microcontrollers and software during the last decades were not followed by the robot’s manufacturer. As a result, the robot became obsolete and practically useless despite its good characteristics. The upgrade used up to date, off the shelf components and open source software tools. There was a major enhancement at robot’s processing power, energy consumption, weight and autonomy time. Experimental testing proved the upgraded robot’s operational integrity and capability of undertaking educational, research and other typical robotic tasks. | en |
