Why Top Laboratories Choose DEEP Robotics
Unrestricted Research Hardware
Research platforms should support iteration, not restrict it.
From the compact Lite3 used for controlled indoor experiments to the IP67-rated X30 deployed in harsh field environments, our robots are engineered for repeated testing, failure-tolerant experimentation, and long research cycles. This reliability allows labs to focus on algorithms, data quality, and reproducibility rather than hardware protection.
Completely Open Architecture
Designed for transparency, control, and extensibility.
Researchers have access to low-level motor control and high-level motion planning, enabling experimentation across the full control stack. Native ROS and ROS2 compatibility, along with C++ and Python SDKs, ensures seamless integration into existing lab infrastructure and supports custom control, perception, and learning pipelines.
Scalable from Bench to Field
One research platform across multiple project phases.
Begin with Lite3 for benchmarking, prototyping, and student projects, then scale to the X30 for outdoor trials and real-world validation with payloads exceeding 20 kg. This continuity reduces re-engineering effort and supports long-term research programs from early experimentation through field deployment.
