Tbe Intelligent Robotics Group at NASA Ames Research Center has developed a new mobile robot hardware architecture designed for extensibility and reconfigurability. Currently implemented on the K-9 rover, and soon to be integrated onto the K1O series of human-robot collaboration research robots, this architecture allows for rapid changes in instrumentation configuration and provides a high degree of modularity through a synergistic mix of off-the-shelf and custom designed components, allowing eased transplantation into a wide variety of mobile robot platforms. A component level overview of this architecture is presented along with a description of the changes required for implementation on K1O, followed by plans for future work.
