The SCOUT MINI R&D Kit share the same basic design with SCOUT MINI R&D Kit, the difference between each other are the
sensors location. The computing unit Nvida AGX Xavier is at the bottom of the holder, the USB-HUB with independent power
supply is located at the second layer along with USB to CAN module and Intel RealSense D435 . The third layer is mainly
composed of lidar adapter and voltage stabilizing modules, while the top layer is currently mainly installed with VLP 16 lidar
. Please refer to the following figure for detail.
SCOUT MINI R&D Kit provides power and communication interfaces for devices and sensors through the aviation expansion
interface of the chassis. The SCOUT MINI chassis power expansion interface (maximum power output supports 24V@5A) is
powered by the chassis’ battery, without a voltage regulator and voltage regulation module. In order to provide power
supply to devices and sensors, the voltage regulator and stabilizer is essential. We chose a 12V@20A voltage stabilizer
module. The voltage stabilizer mainly provides power input for 5V voltage stabilizer modules, wireless routers, and USB-HUB.
The 5@10A voltage stabilizer module provide power input for EAI-G4 laser Radar and Nvidia Jetson Nano.
The following figure is the external connection of Nvidia Jetson Nano. Nano's network port is connected to the router's
network port which is designed for remote desktop control to access and debug, also it is easy to expand other network
devices. For the USB expansion, we add a USB-HUB (with additional power supply) to improve the devices expansion
capacity. USB-HUB mainly connect with EAI-G4 lidar, Intel RealSenseD435,HD display, etc.
