Scenario: A differential-drive robot (two powered wheels and a caster wheel) used for delivery.
Chassis Role:
The chassis, likely CNC-machined aluminum from a provider like Shenzhen Alu Rapid, mounts two DC motors connected to wheels, a battery pack, and a microcontroller.
Sensors (e.g., ultrasonic or LiDAR) on the chassis detect obstacles, sending data to the microcontroller.
The microcontroller adjusts motor speeds to steer the robot (e.g., speeding up one wheel and slowing the other for turns).
The chassis ensures the robot remains stable while carrying a payload, with mounting points for a cargo tray.
Wiring within the chassis connects all components, and its robust design withstands vibrations on uneven floors.
