Motion Development Kit

MOTION DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM (MDP)

A complete, ready-to-use motion stack — so you can focus on the application.

Dreambot's motion kit comes with a ready-to-use API that controls stepper motor drivers and BLDC drivers. The drivers are controlled over K-Bus from industry-standard controllers such as Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano or Jetson Orin Nano.

The complete motion stack — motion parameters, acceleration and deceleration curves, and motor RPM — runs on these open platforms. Dreambot can support the kit on any industry-standard single-board computer, so you focus on the application and we handle the real-time issues.

Joint Actuator

Precise, responsive and reliable motion for robotic arms, cobots and humanoid robots.

Dreambot's joint actuators are engineered for the next generation of robotics. Combining high-torque drive technology with compact mechanical integration and intelligent motion control, they are designed to meet application-specific requirements across a wide range of robotic systems.

They are built for predictive maintenance: Dreambot's motion API can bring motor current curves out to the edge board or to the cloud.
