Design emphasizes easy access to the Robodrive control board and electronics bay, for prototyping and testing. Users need only two Philips screws to access the electronics bay and a single M3 screw to remove the Robodrive control module entirely. Other hardware subsystems are similarly modular, allowing quick attachment or detachment. This accessibility reduces setup time and enhances efficiency for testing, modifications, and repairs, supporting iteration for development teams.

The Robodrive Engine Control Board is a control hub designed to manage the AGV’s functions. Internally, it hosts modular circuitry for real-time command execution, duplex communication, and power regulation, all optimized for minimal latency. The board features easily accessible I/O ports, enabling rapid prototyping, customization, and system upgrades. Its architecture is streamlined for efficient thermal management and durability, making it suitable for both standard and intensive operational environments.
