Dobot Magician Go

The Magician Go is a mobile platform that can be combined with a Magician Lite to enable mobility to the robotic arm. It has two AI powered cameras, located at the front of the chassis and attached to the tip of the robotic arm, to allow for more application scenarios.

• With the inclusion of a built-in odometer, the Magician Go provides real-time position data transmission, ensuring accurate monitoring of the robot’s movement and enabling users to plan travel paths with ease. The synthetic dynamic environment simulation further enhances the user experience by facilitating comprehensive monitoring of the robot’s movement and allowing for efficient path planning.
• To enable advanced functionality, the Magician Go incorporates a locally deployed AI algorithm, enabling image, text, and facial recognition without the need for a network connection. This empowers the robot to perform tasks such as road recognition, street sign detection, pedestrian detection, and even operate its robotic arm while in motion.
• The Magician Go seamlessly integrates with the DobotLab software, providing users with the capability to create customized programs using Python and graphical programming. This flexibility allows users to leverage the full potential of the robot and tailor its functionality to suit specific tasks and applications. Additionally, the Magician Go supports various hardware modules that can work in tandem, enabling the execution of complex and customized tasks.
• Building on its versatile programming options, the Magician Go offers a drag-to-teach programming feature, empowering users to intuitively teach the robot without the need for extensive coding knowledge. It also provides multiple programming options, including a graphical interface for effortless operation, graphical block programming similar to Scratch, scripting capabilities using languages like LUA, and compatibility with a wide range of APIs such as C, C#, Python, Kotlin, and more. These features ensure that users of all skill levels can easily learn and master the operation of the robot, making it accessible and adaptable to a diverse user base.

Key Features

Omnidirectional Mobility

• Equipped with mecanum wheels, the Magician Go can move forward, sideways, diagonally, and rotate in place—all without changing wheel orientation.

• This design allows for precise navigation even in constrained environments. 

Smart Navigation & Positioning

• Built-in odometer and positioning system provide real-time location data. 

• A simulated dynamic environment enables path planning and movement monitoring.

AI & Vision Capabilities

• Supports local AI algorithms (without relying on network connection) to perform tasks such as image recognition, text recognition, and face detection.

• Enables autonomous driving behaviors including identifying road signs, detecting pedestrians, sorting objects, and executing robot arm actions while moving. 

Control Methods & Software

• Multiple control interfaces: USB, Bluetooth, wired, and script-based control.

• Comes with a Magic Box controller module and supports remote 2.4 GHz joystick control. 

• Uses DobotLab software (supports block-style “Blockly” programming and Python scripting). 

• Can integrate with additional hardware modules and sensors to build complex tasks and learning modules. 

Safety Features

• Sensitive obstacle detection switch triggers alarms or halts motion when encountering an obstruction. 

• Emergency motor lock / stop switch supports safe handling during demos or debugging.
