About TurtleBot 4

TurtleBot 4 combines an iRobot Create 3 mobile base with ROS 2 compute and development hardware. Standard models add a two-dimensional lidar, OAK-D depth camera and Raspberry Pi computer, while Lite models provide a simpler entry configuration.

The platform supports autonomous docking, mapping, navigation, computer vision and manipulator integration. Clearpath publishes open-source software, simulation models and educational material for laboratories and classrooms. Expansion plates and accessible power interfaces support additional sensors and application hardware.
