Overview

What is the AgileX Tracer AGV Robot | Georgia Tech Trusts It?

The AgileX Tracer is a two-wheel differential AGV (automated guided vehicle) engineered as a development-ready mobile base for indoor logistics, material handling, and robotics research. Its low, flat profile and tight maneuverability let it pivot in place and thread crowded lab benches, warehouse aisles, and campus corridors, while a payload capacity of up to 100 kg leaves ample headroom to mount manipulators, sensor masts, LiDAR, depth cameras, or custom service-robot superstructures. RobotLAB supplies the Tracer to higher-education and industrial R&D teams who need a dependable, expandable chassis rather than a closed appliance.

Power comes from two 150 W brushless motors driving the platform to a no-load top speed of 1.6 m/s, with a 24V 15Ah battery (upgradable to 24V 30Ah) delivering roughly four hours of runtime and a two-hour recharge. CAN and serial interfaces, plus AgileX's open SDK and ROS support, make the Tracer straightforward to integrate into autonomy stacks for navigation, SLAM, and fleet-coordination projects. It is built for flat indoor surfaces, handling small 10 mm obstacles and grades up to 8 degrees.

As a reseller, RobotLAB offers the Tracer at $7,590 to own outright, or through its Robot-as-a-Service program at $289/month so labs and facilities can scale fleets without a large up-front capital outlay. Every unit ships backed by RobotLAB's nationwide deployment, training, and service support, so your team spends time on research and operations instead of integration headaches.

How it works

AgileX Tracer AGV Robot | Georgia Tech Trusts It in detail

University Robotics Research & Teaching

Trusted by programs at Georgia Tech and the University of Tulsa, the Tracer serves as an open, ROS-friendly mobile base for coursework and grant research in SLAM, autonomous navigation, multi-robot coordination, and human-robot interaction. Its CAN/serial interfaces and 100 kg payload let students and faculty bolt on manipulators, LiDAR, and compute without rebuilding the drivetrain.

Indoor Autonomous Material Handling

In warehouses, manufacturing cells, and back-of-house operations, the Tracer's differential drive and in-place pivoting move carts, totes, and parts bins through narrow aisles and tight workstations. With up to 100 kg payload and roughly four hours of runtime, it automates repetitive point-to-point transport on flat indoor floors.

Service & Surveillance Robot Base

The flat deck and generous payload make the Tracer a practical foundation for purpose-built service robots and indoor patrol/surveillance platforms. Integrators mount sensor towers, cameras, displays, or delivery enclosures and use the open SDK to layer in autonomous routing for hospitals, campuses, and commercial facilities.

Questions & answers

About the AgileX Tracer AGV Robot | Georgia Tech Trusts It.

  1. Is the AgileX Tracer suitable for indoor or outdoor use?

    The Tracer is purpose-built for indoor use on flat surfaces such as labs, warehouses, and campus corridors. Its two-wheel differential drive handles small 10 mm obstacles and grades up to 8 degrees with no load, but it is not designed for rough terrain or outdoor environments. If you need an outdoor-capable platform, call 1-87-RobotLAB and our team will point you to a more rugged AgileX model like the Scout or Hunter series.

  2. How much can the Tracer carry, and can I mount my own equipment on it?

    The Tracer carries up to 100 kg, leaving plenty of room to mount robotic arms, LiDAR, depth cameras, sensor masts, or custom enclosures. It exposes CAN and serial interfaces and ships with AgileX's open SDK and ROS support for autonomy development. For help spec'ing a payload or integration, call 1-87-RobotLAB.

  3. What is the battery life and charging time?

    The Tracer runs for approximately four hours on a no-load charge using its 24V 15Ah battery, which can be upgraded to 24V 30Ah for longer endurance. A full recharge takes about two hours. Actual runtime depends on payload, speed, and duty cycle.

  4. Can I buy the Tracer outright or subscribe to it?

    Both. RobotLAB offers the Tracer for purchase at $7,590, or through our Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) program at $289/month so you can deploy without a large up-front investment. Call 1-87-RobotLAB to discuss which option fits your budget and fleet size.

  5. Do universities actually use the Tracer for research?

    Yes. Higher-education programs including Georgia Tech and the University of Tulsa use the Tracer as an open, expandable base for robotics research and teaching in areas like SLAM, autonomous navigation, and multi-robot coordination. Its open SDK and ROS compatibility make it a popular choice for grant-funded labs and coursework.

  6. What support does RobotLAB provide after purchase?

    As America's largest commercial robotics integrator, RobotLAB backs every Tracer with nationwide deployment, training, and service support. We help with integration, onboarding, and ongoing maintenance so your team can focus on research or operations. Reach our support team at 1-87-RobotLAB.
