Validated Templates

Validated Build Templates.

Start from a validated template or describe your own build in the Designer. Every configuration — template or custom — ships with a full BOM, wiring diagrams, power budget, and ME sign-off.

Flagship

Room-Nav Conversational Robot

Advanced

The flagship build — based on the Soohoo Labs reference platform. Powers a fully autonomous indoor robot with conversational AI, 360° LIDAR mapping, and OAK-D spatial intelligence. Jetson Orin Nano handles the ML pipeline entirely at the edge. Everything you need, nothing you don't.

NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano 8GB — 40 TOPS edge inference
Luxonis OAK-D Lite — spatial AI + stereo depth
RPLIDAR A1 — 360° mapping at 5.5m range
ReSpeaker 6-mic array — far-field conversational input
Cytron MDD10A — 10A dual motor control
ROS2 Humble on JetPack 6.0 — fully tested
