4T-POM-X4/4T Quadruped Robot Development Kit
Preview of the 4T quadruped robot development kit
Model: 4T-POM-X4
Introduction to the Quadruped Robot Development Kit
The 4T quadruped robot development kit is developed based on three core control modules: POM_Nano_G4, POM_Nano_C6, and POM_Nano_RP (compatible with all three models), combined with a 32-channel servo control board (POM_SC32). It features 12 degrees of freedom with high-performance motion capabilities. The body is made of high-strength, lightweight PETG structure, equipped with 12 high-speed, high-performance coreless servos. Paired with the linkage-structured legs, it offers flexible and rich movements. Built-in inverse kinematics analysis, standing posture control, gait control, and other algorithms make it easy to achieve posture adjustment and movement modes such as slow walking and trotting. It supports functions like forward/backward movement, turning, and lateral movement.
The kit supports quick setup via a PC-based GUI and a Bluetooth app for smartphones.

32-Channel Servo Driver Board
The 32-channel servo controller is designed by the Four-Tech Education and Research Team at Beijing Four-Tech Technology Co., Ltd. specifically for high-precision servo motion control scenarios. This product integrates multiple servo drivers, communication interfaces, and power management modules, making it suitable for robotics, automation equipment, educational experiments, and creative projects. Users can easily communicate and perform secondary development with the main control device via the onboard TTL serial port, and it supports external power supply from 3S/4S/5S lithium batteries to meet various power requirements. The product comes with a PC-based graphical programming software that provides full-process support from parameter debugging to firmware flashing. With 4M FLASH and signal isolation design, it ensures system stability and offline operation capability.
PC software is provided for rapid development.
