Map Warehouses Faster: Raspberry Pi Multi-Robot SLAM Kit
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 25 days.
This kit lets you deploy three autonomous robots to scan and map a warehouse. Each Raspberry Pi Zero 2W robot uses ultrasonic sensors to detect bin levels, and the central Pi 5 merges their partial maps into a complete 3D inventory model-coverage up to 3x faster than single-robot SLAM.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble and program a fleet of three mobile robots, each carrying HC-SR04 sensors to measure distances to storage bins. The robots navigate autonomously using DC motors and motor drivers, while the RPLidar A1 on the aggregator handles high-precision localization. The Pi 5 runs a map merging algorithm, combining individual robot maps into a single coherent inventory map.
What You'll Learn
- Multi-robot SLAM and coordinate transformation for map merging
- Raspberry Pi inter-device communication over Wi-Fi
- Sensor fusion: ultrasonic distance sensing with RPLidar localization
- Motor control with Cytron drivers for differential drive
