The Six-axis Robotic Arm with Flat Base is a compact, portable, and highly functional robotic platform built on a Raspberry Pi microprocessor and pre-installed with an Ubuntu operating system. Featuring a 280mm working radius and six degrees of freedom (6 DoF), it supports independent operation without a PC, making it ideal for robotics development, education, research, and light industrial applications.
This version comes with a flat base, equipped with suction cups for quick, stable installation on smooth surfaces.
