About the brand
Who is AgileX?
AgileX Robotics was founded in 2016 in Shenzhen and has become the go-to manufacturer of ROS-native mobile robotic platforms for university and industrial R&D. The LIMO is a four-wheel-steer desktop robot perfect for swarm and SLAM research; the Scout 2.0 and Scout Mini bring outdoor-capable UGV platforms to autonomous driving researchers; the Tracer line addresses indoor industrial AGV development.

Why us
Why we partner with AgileX
01
ROS 2 native, Isaac-ready
Every AgileX platform ships with ROS 2 packages, URDFs, Gazebo models, and Isaac ROS integration. Researchers start writing the interesting code, not the boilerplate.
02
Four-mode steering on LIMO is rare
LIMO can switch between Ackermann, differential, omni, and tracked steering on the same chassis — a unique teaching tool for showing how mobile robot kinematics actually work.
03
Outdoor capability without 6-figure pricing
Scout 2.0 takes researchers outside the lab for real terrain testing at under $14K. Comparable Clearpath platforms cost 3-5x more.

Questions & answers
Long-form Q&A: deploying AgileX in production
Real questions from research faculty buying AgileX for grad student work.
-
What can a robotics PhD actually do on LIMO?
SLAM research, multi-robot swarm work, RL for navigation, sim-to-real transfer using the Gazebo and Isaac models. The four-mode steering makes it especially valuable for studying how kinematics affect policy.
-
Can Scout 2.0 actually drive outdoors in snow?
Yes, within reason. Four-wheel drive, IP44 rating, and we have customer footage of it driving through light snow at Cornell. Heavy mud or deep snow is out of scope.
-
Does AgileX integrate with NVIDIA Isaac Sim?
Yes. LIMO ROS 2 ships with Isaac ROS packages pre-installed. Sim-to-real transfer is a documented workflow.
-
What sensors come on a stock LIMO Pro?
2D LiDAR, depth camera, IMU. The Pro version adds an upgraded 3D LiDAR option. Plenty for most undergrad and grad research.
-
Can students 3D print parts to mount on LIMO?
Yes. LIMO has a standard mounting plate with M3 hole pattern. Many labs print custom payload mounts. CAD files are published by AgileX.
-
What is the battery life on Scout 2.0?
2-3 hours of mixed driving. Hot-swappable battery option available for extended field sessions.
-
How does the R&D Kit Pro bundle work?
LIMO platform + robotic arm (Niryo-class) + multi-sensor pack + curriculum modules. It is built for a 1-semester university robotics course out of the box.
-
Can multiple LIMOs do swarm research together?
Yes. ROS 2 multi-master and multi-robot frameworks are pre-configured. Labs typically run 4-8 LIMOs together for swarm research.
-
What is the realistic accuracy of LIMO's SLAM?
Sub-10cm in indoor environments with the upgraded 3D LiDAR. Suitable for nearly all teaching and most research applications.
-
How long does an AgileX platform last?
5-7 years with normal use. Motors and bearings are the high-wear items; AgileX stocks spares and RobotLAB carries the common parts domestically.
