Hyundai Motor Company MobED

Mobile Eccentric Droid hardware platform

eccentric wheel design

autonomous-driving capability and a mounting-rail structure

six variants

outdoor delivery, video capture, riding, and more

pitch and roll

power delivery, steering, and full-body posture control

Quadratic Programming optimal control algorithm

Semi-holonomic Driving Control

±10° degree

two versions: MobED Basic and MobED Pro

R&D platform for building autonomous-driving robots

developers or research organizations can integrate their own autonomous-driving software and hardware

equipped with AI-based algorithms and fused LiDAR-and-camera sensors to deliver autonomous-driving capability as a complete model

operated via a separate wireless controller

touchscreen controller that displays operating status with 3D graphics on a large screen

supports designing customer-specific operating scenarios on-device—without routing through a server

rapid recognition of people and obstacles

both indoor and outdoor spaces

path-generation algorithm that selects the optimal route and relies on 2.5-dimensional local map information

dedicated connection ports that allow direct use of MobED’s battery and controller

moving small cargo such as parcel boxes to a destination, then freely loading and unloading them

cupholders and storage space

displays mounted on both sides of the delivery box can show promotional content, delivery information, and notifications

transport food safely

upon arrival, it lifts its body and automatically opens the delivery box

after completing work or depleting the battery, MobED can travel to a charging station and recharge itself

MobED Golf, which performs a golf caddie role

MobED Urban Hopper, which can be used as personal mobility similar to an electric scooter

MobED Broadcasting, equipped with a broadcast camera

open APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) for key functions in the form of an open data platform

first half of next year

in-wheel motor architecture

four independent drive wheels

motor system mounted at each wheel internally can adjust the body’s ride height

20 cm (about 7.9 inches)

leverage terrain height data and drive stably even in unpredictable environments

keep itself level even on rough slopes or terrain with large height differences

GPS

two 3D LiDAR units

three cameras

eight radar sensors

IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit)

mounting-rail structure on the upper platform

if there is an error in a sensor, other sensors can substitute its function

direct use of MobED’s battery

a MobED with a robot arm lifts boxes easily
