ROS2 Wildlife Camera Trap Kit – Autonomous Rover with Raspberry Pi 5

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Transform a Raspberry Pi 5 into an intelligent camera trap rover that autonomously patrols forest trails, detects obstacles with lidar, and follows lane markings while capturing wildlife footage. This all-in-one kit delivers the full ROS2 Humble autonomous navigation stack.

What You'll Build

By the end of this build, you'll have a fully autonomous four-wheeled rover that can follow pre-defined paths, avoid obstacles in real-time, and stream wildlife video over Wi-Fi. It's a real-world edge AI system you can deploy in a nature reserve, farm, or patch of campus woodland.

What You'll Learn

• Configure ROS2 Humble on Raspberry Pi 5 and integrate camera, lidar, and motor driver nodes
• Implement lane-following algorithms using OpenCV and Pi Camera Module 3 Wide
• Process RPLidar A1 data for 360-degree obstacle detection and avoidance
• Deploy an autonomous navigation stack with SLAM, path planning, and goal-setting

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

This kit is built for B.Tech ECE and CSE students working on autonomous robot projects for college fests, Smart India Hackathon, or final-year capstones. It's also ideal for IIT, NIT, VIT, and BITS Pilani teams needing a ready-to-assemble ROS2 platform for research in wildlife monitoring and edge AI.

Built and Backed by Compoden

Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
